About STAGES

SPARC’s in-school outreach and after-school enrichment classes serve almost 1,000 students each year in over 20 schools and community centers. Classes allow area children throughout Richmond the opportunity to try their hand at performing arts. These readiness classes allow young people to develop socialization skills while learning basic performer skills. Thanks to generous foundation, corporate, government and individual support, STAGES programs are offered at no charge to participants in underserved neighborhoods.
