The arts belong to every child
Keys Community School of the Arts brings theater, music and the arts to young people across the Florida Keys, on stage, in schools and in our community.
What We Believe
As a group of educators, we strongly believe in the benefits of engagement in the arts and the strong effects it has on the young burgeoning minds of our community’s youth. We strive to continue to introduce the arts and art world to all children regardless of their social and or economic background.
Every program is built so that young people of all experience levels can take part, learn from working artists and share what they have made with an audience. Financial aid is available, so that cost is never the reason a child misses out.
Mission
To bring quality arts education to the Florida Keys community through our summer programming and arts outreach in the Monroe County school system.
Vision
A Florida Keys where every young person can discover, develop and share a creative voice of their own through the arts.
Our History
In August of 2006, in direct response to the cuts in arts education funding in Monroe County, the Keys Community School of the Arts was formed to ensure that the need for this integral part of our culture would not be left unfulfilled within our community.
In Our Community
Our presence has been felt through our partnerships with Mary Immaculate Star of the Sea School, St. Paul’s Episcopal Church, Sigsbee Charter School, Montessori May Sands and the Key West High School’s Art For the World Project for Haiti. We also continue to perform throughout the community, as we have done for the past 14 years.
For many summers, Camp Bravo, our musical theater camp, gave young performers in Key West a full-scale production of their own on stage.
Our Supporters
KCSA is made possible by the families, local businesses, foundations and friends who believe in arts education in the Florida Keys. Their generosity funds financial aid and brings the arts to more children every year. Thank you.
