MISSION
PoP’s Performing Arts is an organization of committed artists and educators dedicated to developing the God given talents of every man, woman, and child without regard to race, gender, or socioeconomic status, into instruments of praise; and to the character development of the youth through
mentoring, teaching, and guidance. In so doing, we will endeavor to train young people to use their artistic gift for God’s glory and to become men and women of high moral character who will, in turn, have a positive effect on our communities. All of our students, young and old, will develop attitudes, discipline, and skill that will not only impact our schools, workplace, and community, but, the field of art as we know it.
