President & CEO The Reverend Kimberly L. Hyatt
Dear Friends:
Chair Heather Moore
It has been such a privilege to work with the awe-inspiring children enrolled in our afterschool ARTS Ignite! programs this year as they learned new ways to Unleash Their Creativity! Bill Gates once remarked, “Don’t compare yourself with anyone in this world … if you do so, you are insulting yourself.” At the Cathedral Arts Project, we strive to help students find what resonates within them, knowing that each student is beautifully and uniquely created. It is our hope that as we encourage their creative thinking, they will begin to discover who they are and the mark they can make upon the world. I always say that if you care about public education, then you need to care about arts education. Arts education creates tomorrow’s leaders – enhancing the creative capacity of young people and empowering them to analyze, innovate and create. The most lasting way to enrich our quality of life as a community and secure our young people’s futures is by unleashing their capacity for innovative thinking, preparing them to be problem solvers in the 21st century. Numerous studies have reinforced what we see time and time again – when students experience information by engaging in the arts, it takes hold in their minds in ways nothing else can. Year after year, we get to see firsthand how the arts are so often a catalyst for extraordinary change in a child’s life. This year has been no exception. I trust these children will inspire you today. I urge you to open your mind to the untold possibilities of their lives. And I hope you will always encourage them to Unleash Their Creativity! Always onward,
Rev. Kimberly L. Hyatt

Cathedral Arts Project
Mission & History
Performance & Exhibition
The Cathedral Arts Project is the leading provider of comprehensive and ongoing instruction in the visual and performing arts for elementary and middle school students in Duval County.
Showcasing student work is a mainstay of CAP programs, serving as a reward for students’ hard work and reinforcing the self-confidence and maturity fostered in classes. CAP students annually participate in at least two public exhibitions or performances.
Our mission is to enrich the quality of life in Northeast Florida through unleashing the creative spirit of young people. By providing access to free standards-based instruction in the visual and performing arts, we empower underserved, schoolaged children to succeed in all areas of their lives. Our vision is for every child in Northeast Florida to have access to a well-rounded, arts-rich education that endows his or her spirit with the imagination, self-confidence and strength of character that inspires great leadership and a will to succeed not just in the classroom, but also in life.

2018 Showcase of the Arts
The Visual and Performing Arts Showcases are the ultimate finale for all CAP students. Each visual artist is allowed individual exhibition space and each musician, dancer and actor is given appropriate materials with which to perform. From new and properly-fitting dance shoes to appropriately sized violins, CAP ensures all students who create works of art for the showcases are given every opportunity to shine. This is critical – for most students, it is their first time exhibiting a piece of art or performing on a professional stage.
CAP began in 1993 at Jacksonville’s St. John’s Episcopal Cathedral as an afterschool dance class for 10 children from a nearby transitional housing facility. Between 1996 and 1999, a modest but energetic and dedicated staff brought new programs in visual arts, chorus, theatre and violin to nearly 20 elementary schools. Addressing its rapidly evolving needs, between 2000 and 2003 CAP acquired 501(c)(3) status, hired Kimberly L. Hyatt as President & CEO, and made classes twice-weekly.
Instruct. Instill. Inspire.
•
Instruct using a standards-based curriculum that immerses students in the vocabulary, history and beauty of an art form.
Now celebrating our 25th anniversary, the Cathedral Arts Project has provided quality arts education to more than 27,000 K-8 students in Duval County. The driving force behind all CAP programs is the belief that the arts matter – they provide essential skills like creative thinking, perseverance, teamwork and self-discipline that benefit all people in all areas of their lives.
•
Instill through rigorous and sequential learning, building students’ skills over the course of a year.
•
Inspire students by introducing professional, diverse, working artists through field trips to arts and culture venues and presentations at program sites.
•
Provide gateway experiences to show students what a life informed by arts and culture looks and feels like.
Through a variety of offerings including afterschool, school day and summer programs, cultural experiences, advocacy, community partnerships and professional development for teachers and artists, CAP seeks to:

I learned to sing and the song set me free, I learned to dance and the dance gave me wings! I learned to paint on the canvas of life, And now I can see I have made a new start! There’s a cathedral in my heart, An open space of love and light! Yes, a cathedral rising high, A ray of hope within my life! I learned to play instruments on my own, I learned to read some musical notes, I learned to act on the stage with a smile, And all of these things made me feel like a star! There’s a cathedral in my heart, An open space of love and light! Yes, a cathedral rising high, A ray of hope within my life! Thank you for the gift! Thank you for the lift! Thank you, one and all, someday I’ll pass it on, Someday I will pass it on and on and on and on and on! Thank you! 24
