PRODUCTION:
With a mission to educate, incubate, and curate both individual and collaborative works, we aspire to not only host touring works but to facilitate new works within the community.
ARTISTS RESIDENCIES:
We often provide free and low cost space to artists and organizations in need. In spring of 2025 we officially launched our Artist in Residence Program (AIR)! Our 2025-2026 Season features local performers in a variety of disciplines including music, dance and theatre. Our 25-26 local Artists in Residence include Melange Dance Company, Musician Neal Todten, Playwright Anita Vatshell, and Maestro Riccardo Leonida in launching the Louisiana Baroque Chamber Orchestra (LABCO). We provide individual consulting and support to each artist to help customize and reach their residency goals.
If you would like to support any of our artists in residence or our program in general, you can do so here. Please note the name of the artist you are supporting or “general” for general program support. Your donation is tax deductible.

Health, wellness, and healing arts classes are essential for providing a solid foundation for artistic and spiritual balance and development, benefiting not only artists but the general community as well. Engaging in these practices helps individuals maintain physical health, manage stress, and foster mental clarity, which are crucial for sustaining creativity and productivity. The integration of wellness techniques, such as mindfulness, yoga, and therapeutic arts, nurtures emotional and spiritual well-being, enabling people to connect more deeply with themselves and their community. By cultivating a balanced lifestyle, both artists and community members can achieve greater resilience, inspiration, and fulfillment, ultimately enhancing personal growth and overall quality of life.
