Why We Matter

    
     
       
  There are no pageants or trophies to be won at FCPA. Through workshops and our popular production of The Nutcracker, we focus on instructional and performance aspects for those students interested in potentially pursuing a career in the arts, or for those who just want to pursue their interest in serious art forms. Students not only learn to perform, but also develop personally through the physical activity, discipline and cultural growth that are at the heart of the performing arts.    
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
       
 
         
 

Get Involved!

   
         
 

Whether through your sponsorship, in-kind donations or volunteering, or even just attending our performances, your support is vital to our goal of fulfilling the expressive and creative needs of members of our community, many of whom would otherwise not have the opportunity to participate in the arts.

Involve your kids in the arts. And get yourself involved by volunteering or making a donation today!
