The Community School of the Arts (CSA) provides students within our community comprehensive arts experiences that inspire them to discover and develop their unique talents. Our professional teaching artists are committed to sharing their artistry in music, dance, theatre and the visual arts. Their lessons are designed with the goal of ensuring that every child is successful regardless of their level of mastery. Together we believe that the arts can help children develop their own creativity, selfesteem and self-discipline and can expand the way they see themselves; transforming their lives and the world around us. Our fall session begins in September. Class offerings include: garage bands, theatre classes and a variety of dance classes! Private instruction is also available.
Not sure which class is right for your child? Give us a call and we’ll be happy to help. Try It Week – During the first week of class (September 6 – 10) your child may try any age appropriate class (with no commitment) to see if it’s right for them. Try It – They’ll Like It!

“Chris Hudson is a talented guitar player and fantastic teacher. My son’s first band experience was with the CSA Garage Band Class. He really enjoyed Chris’ laid back style, while learning how to communicate and collaborate with the other band members.”
