At DREAMS Center for Arts Education, we believe every child has the right to creative self-expression and should be given the opportunity to grow into the person that they are and wish to become – trying new things in a supportive space where they are encouraged to take creative risks, embrace their inner uniqueness, and reach for the stars. The arts are foundational to the well-being and personal growth of all people, and we believe every barrier to access and participation should be removed,
especially for youth and teens.
Afterschool (ages 8 - 17)
Our high quality, multi-disciplinary arts program is free of charge and held Monday through Thursday on our campus from 3:30 until 6:30 pm.
We offer classes in visual and performing arts that include such favorites as pottery, dance, digital arts, theatre, music and much more!

DTD is a pre-professional dance company whose members are ages 11 – 17 and join by audition. DTD dancers travel to the UNCSA Festival of Dance every year and receive professional instruction from resident Teaching Artists as well as professional dance instructors from all over the world.
Teen Council (ages 13 - 17)
Teen Council is a program for 13-17 year old DREAMers who wish to improve their leadership skills and make a positive impact on the community. Teen Council members do community service projects and focus on social justice issues while enjoying socializing with like minded teens and positive adult role models.
Homeschool (ages 8 - 17)
Our Homeschool Program is offered during the Spring and Fall semesters. Students in our homeschool program join us for 8 weeks, meeting once a week on Thursdays from 11:30am – 1:45pm.
