Funding Youth in Arts

Central Park Performing Arts Foundation knows funding Youth in Arts programs can be one of the most important steps we take as individuals and as a society.

Exposure to the performing arts results in more successful adults who engage more, are confident, and overcome economic barriers. Exposure goes beyond sitting in the audience, youth must engage.
