arts programming for ages 5 & Up
The Fly Arts Center Youth Arts Program was launched in September 2024 by our Youth Program Director Mary Margaret Edwards and Youth Committee Co-chair Ashley Bell. It began with our Youth Theatre groups and will now be expanded throughout 2025 and 2026 into visual arts, media arts, creative writing and more.
​
Our goal is to provide a welcoming place that inspires the whole family to learn and create.

THE FLY BASEMENT IS TURNING INTO A YOUTH ARTS ZONE
Efforts are currently underway to transform the lower level of The Fly Arts Center into a space where youth arts can thrive within our community. We hope to include classroom, rehearsal and media production spaces, as well as a safe, inviting places creative kids and teens can call their home away from home.
