Vision
HEAL Center for the Arts is committed to developing young intellectual artists whom we believe will positively influence the way in which our society thinks and feels by creating and presenting meaningful art. We are able to achieve this because our students are trained through a rigorous curriculum that is both challenging and engaging from world renowned artist and educators.
Our students are taught with love, fervor, and dedication. They are learning what it means to be disciplined, structured, and most importantly, they are being taught to rise above the nefarious and complicit behaviors that continue to plague our society.
Mission
HEAL Center for the Arts is committed to making quality arts programming accessible to all students, especially to those of urban communities.
HEAL Center for the Arts is a 501c3 nonprofit organization and multi-disciplinary center of music, arts learning, and performance in St. Louis, Missouri. The Center provides arts education programs after school and during school vacations to middle and high school students and fosters a rich, diverse cultural perspective of the arts through high quality instruction for youth specializing in instrumental and vocal music.
