Our Mission
West Creative Performing Arts fosters Creativity, Invention & Leadership in youth through exposure, experience, and education in the performing arts.
Our Values
We stand for the universal values of dignity, equity, and compassion as the wisdom that guides our artistic practice.
Through these values, our work
1. Cultivates trust and credibility with humanity;
2. Heightens positive impacts on our students and community;
3. Provides sustainable and relevant opportunity in an ever-evolving culture; and
4. Shapes a cohesive community through creative opportunity
We create a brave space where participants find welcome acceptance, open dialogue, and diversity of perspective through values-based actions.
Our purpose is to connect youth from every culture powerfully to their inner capacities and dreams. Our tools to achieve this purpose include:
CREATIVITY & INVENTION – We celebrate and inspire creativity, encouraging out-of-the-box thinking and new perspectives. We take collective and individual risks to amplify the voice of individuals, communities, and humanity.
EMPOWERMENT & LEADERSHIP – We empower our students and artists to boldly take risks, realizing that active learning acknowledges “failure” as a keystone to success. We combine skills training and opportunity to foster tomorrow’s artists and leaders.
INTEGRITY – We are consistent in our pursuit of honest reflection and response to our actions as individuals and organizations.
EXCELLENCE – We define excellence as trusting our inner capacities and wisdom to bring our very best efforts and selves to each action, project, and community engagement.
COLLABORATION & MENTORSHIP – We lead and live by example, taking care to honor the exchange of ideas and solutions of all stakeholders and develop an opportunity to share knowledge with next-generation artists, educators, and leaders.
PLAY – We maintain a playful, dynamic, and harmonious atmosphere which encourages exploring one’s unique perspective in the creative process and generates an easeful onboard for finding courage.
