our mission

Art is a language. Let’s speak it together.
At Community Art Reach, we believe everyone should learn art the way they learn to talk—by doing it, side by side with those already fluent. Through mentorship with professional artists and hands-on workshops, we create spaces where young people create fearlessly.

Student Feedback

It’s important to make mistakes because then you know how to fix them

Payton, 9th Grade
I loved how comfortable and confident I felt with the music I learned in such a short time and how I was able to just let loose and have fun.

Brystal, 11th Grade
I loved the workshop, it was one of my best orchestra memories. I really enjoyed the difficulty of the music, as it was challenging, but fun to play! It was also nice to play something a little less conventional.

Josh, 10th Grade
There are so many different opportunities that can come throughout life. It's amazing how Peter said, "It took just one phone call" ...Doors open for you anywhere, and you never know until you take that chance.

Brooke, 11th Grade
Creating things together is a truly magical experience!

Moira, 9th Grade
I learned that everyone's journey in the music industry is completely different and that's a good thing! Also, I learned that having even the smallest connections in the community is important!

Shalom, 10th Grade
Every good actor (or anybody in a similar industry) has/had a mentor.

Julianna, 9th Grade
Be confident in yourself

Alicia, 10th Grade
I found the entire workshop very interesting and I love how I now have a resource to go to for advice when it comes to this industry.

Samantha, 10th Grade
I learned a lot about sight reading, feeling the groove, and was exposed to many new rhythms! It gave some exposure to playing professionally and was honestly a ton of fun!
