What it says it does
Arts Evangelica's mission is to change lives through dance worship. Our goal is to teach children to draw near to God as a part of their dance training. Our students progress from beginners to pre-professionals, studying Classical Ballet, Jazz, Contemporary, voice, music and drama in a Christian environment of excellence. Many of our students have received Scholarships to colleges and universities as a result of their training at our school. The Arts Evangelica Dance Company provides an opportunity for the most accomplished students of the school to perform in a variety of venues for the purpose of inspiring audiences to have a relationship with Jesus Christ. We encourage our students to be diamond dancers who are reflections of Jesus Christ and to pursue the Arts to spread the Gospel worldwide.
