The early moments of creating and sharing work can fundamentally shape how children see themselves.

When a child is encouraged to take pride in their ideas, they begin to see a world of possibilities in their own abilities.

These creative beginnings do more than teach artistic techniques. They build a foundation of self-belief that stays with a student as they face new challenges in life. We are proud to provide a space where those first sparks of inspiration turn into lasting confidence.

Visit chaw.org to learn how to get your child started in our youth arts programs.

Supportive teaching changes the entire experience.

When our teaching artists take the time to truly know their students, they create a safe environment where children feel empowered to try, practice, and express themselves without hesitation.

In our classrooms, education is a journey of limitless discovery. By fostering strong relationships between teachers and students, we ensure that every child feels seen and supported as they explore their unique creative potential.

We’re looking for new board members to join our team!

Whether you are looking for a professional development opportunity, a place to connect with like-minded community arts lovers, or need a little something new to do, the CHAW Board of Directors may be the place for you!

This year, we’ll be doing an in person info session on June 4th from 6:30pm - 7:30pm in the dance studio AND a virtual session June 10th from 6:30pm - 7:30pm.

Feel free to share with folks in your networks, who you think might be interested or a good fit!

Children grow here in more ways than one. In our studios and classrooms, students gain far more than technical skills in music, dance, or the visual arts.

They are building the confidence to express themselves, the curiosity to explore new ideas, and a genuine sense of belonging within a creative community.

Our youth programs are designed to be personal and encouraging, ensuring that the growth experienced here endures far beyond a single class period.

Visit chaw.org to see how your child can start their journey with us.
