General Info:

Arts in Action is a 501 ( c ) (3) non-profit organization with a dedicated staff and a highly-trained and a much-acclaimed faculty ready to serve you in six different arts education programs. Our faculty teaches with dedication, purpose and loving hearts with a focus on developing excellence in technique and artistic expression with Christian influence. At our Hurricane studio comprehensive education available this year includes group classes in dance, theater, art, percussion, cheerleading and choir with private lessons in voice, guitar, piano and drums. We are thrilled that the Appalachian Children's Chorus has the Canticle Choir at our facility again this year and in addition is adding a second choir for students K-2ndgrade. Urban Stage, an ArtsReach dance program for under-privileged and at-risk youth is located on the West side of Charleston. Students study ballet, tap and jazz/hip-hop in the nine month program which culminates with a year-end recital showcasing their newly formed talents. Whether your student is studying the arts as a possible career path, to reap the numerous benefits, or for recreational fun, Arts in Action is here to meet your needs. At Arts in Action we are passionate about making a significant impact in the lives of students and the community through arts education! Through documented research and personal experience, we know the numerous benefits awaiting those who study the arts. Documented studies have proven that children involved in arts education OUT PERFORM art poor students in every area of their lives. Students who take four years of arts and music classes while in high school score 85 points better on their SATs than students who took only one-half year or less (scores of 1,063 vs. 978, respectively) and scored an average of 523 on the Writing portion of the test -52 points higher than students with only one-half year or less of arts/music classes.
