Wingspan Arts

“Wingspan Arts aims to enrich the lives of young people in and around New York City through multi-disciplinary arts education programs both in and out of the classroom.

Since its founding in 2001, thousands of children across the New York Metro Region have benefited from Wingspan Arts customized programs.

By partnering with professional artist-educators who bring their creative experiences and personalized lessons to the classroom, Wingspan has transformed the traditional teacher-student paradigm into an authenticity-driven, community-based learning environment.

Through afterschool, in-school, and theatre conservatory programs, Wingspan students are empowered both as individuals and as stewards of the expanding arts community.

All students have creative promise, however many may not have means to access the arts. For these families, Wingspan offers tuition-free opportunities, a scholarship program, and public events as part of our commitment to reaching as many young people as possible.” - Wingspan Arts Mission
