Welcome to Inspire Arts & Music!

Inspire Arts & Music (IAM) is a not-for-profit organization whose programs seek to develop and ‘inspire’ young adults in both scholastic and non-scholastic fine arts activities. The vehicle we use to do this is a portfolio of performing arts programs, and our mission is to help them develop and demonstrate the qualities needed to achieve excellence in both their program and their personal lives.

Our Mission

Through a unique blend of education and performance opportunities, our mission is to help young adults achieve excellence in the arts. Our programs seek to develop young adults in scholastic and non-scholastic fine arts activities.

Board of Directors
