Haven Academy of the Arts exists as a safe, affordable after-school program founded on Judeo-Christian values through which youth grades K-12 develop character by participating in the performing and visual arts. Haven is an educational 501(c)3 non-profit organization. Haven Academy believes that participation in the arts provides the ideal venue for children to grow in creativity, self-expression, leadership skills, team work, responsibility, work ethic, self-confidence, and humility.
The child’s experience in the arts will always trump the quality of the end product. However, Haven Academy believes that a quality end product (recital, performance, art show etc.) is the result of performers and artists who have developed good character qualities such as a strong work ethic and a value in team work. Therefore, Haven Academy will always strive for the highest quality so long as the child’s character development is not compromised and the holistic learning process remains at the forefront.
