Located in the heart of Harlem, HSA continues the tradition set forth by its founder, acclaimed soprano Dorothy Maynor, who believed that any child exposed to a deep and full range of arts programs would benefit in emotional and intellectual growth. HSA's mission is to enrich the lives of youth and their families in the Harlem community and beyond through training in, and exposure to, the arts. HSA is also committed to meeting the challenges of the 21st century by expanding programs to ensure that students have access to new arts education methodologies and cutting edge technology in today's information-driven global society. Open Enrollment courses provide year-round beginning to advanced instruction for children ages 4-18 in group settings or in one-on-one private lessons. Every day, HSA helps young people to develop into self-reliant adults by developing self-confidence, discipline and their love of the arts. As HSA celebrates its 45th year, the school, its faculty and staff are delighted to have been a part of the lives of thousands of students and their families as well as part of the rich cultural heritage in Harlem. We look forward to continuing to grow and change as our community grows and changes and we hope that children and adults of all ages continue to look to HSA as the place where they can find the artist within themselves in a place that nurtures creativity and ingenuity in the four major arts disciplines. Select the classes that interest you and your children and proceed at your own pace while gaining knowledge, experience and mastery of a new arts discipline. *The Harlem School of the Arts* 645 St. Nicholas Avenue, New York, New York 10030 212.926.4100 info at harlemschoolofthearts.org Harlem School of the Arts | 645 St. Nicholas Avenue | New York | NY | 10030 -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
