Community School of The Arts Foundation

Who We Are?

Our Mission:
CSOAF offers an opportunity for children to experience thinking and feeling about internal and external issues in ways that they had never done so before. CSOAF is committed to the artistic growth of children through arts education where they learn discipline, team work, self-respect, confidence, excellence, vision, and literature.

The Community School of the Arts Foundation (CSOAF) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that provides art education and literacy enhancement programs to disadvantaged inner city children, ages K-12, in the Southern California area.

Founded in 2003, CSOAF is dedicated to the conservation and development of children utilizing performing arts education. CSOAF faculty is composed of professional acting coaches, musicians, dancers, visual artists, practicing artists, as well as experienced teachers, and volunteers. CSOAF is a cultural duplicate of the community it serves.

We are committed to the artistic education of youth who do not have the opportunity for enrichment education and professional arts training. CSOAF fulfills a vital community need through our arts programs and numerous outreach concerts and exhibitions.
