Programs

Music

Arts Alive Music programs are created to foster a general love of music and include teaching the basics of music theory: playing notes and chords, learning rhythms, dynamics, etc., while attempting to instill the joy of making music and learning to work with others. Many skills gleaned from these classes assist students to continue musical study in the future, but they also develop positive personal attributes to serve the students well in all their future endeavors.

Programs

Visual Arts

Arts Alive Nassau’s Visual Arts programs develop skills and abilities related to the areas of drawing and painting. We bring these classes to elementary students throughout Nassau County who would not have access to this type of instruction. The instructors use the standards developed by the State of Florida in the Visual Arts. Included in our programming are classes offered during the regular school day, through a contractual agreement with the Nassau County School Board. Our Artist in Residence program will continue to grow in the future!
