Fine Arts Association continues hybrid arts education for spring 2021

The Fine Arts Association (FAA) began their hybrid arts education instruction at the beginning of the shutdown in March.  Today, FAA continues to offer in-person classes, private lessons, and creative arts therapy sessions with the option to attend virtually–– apart from theatre and ceramics.  With COVID-19 guidelines in place, parents and students continue to feel safe at FAA.

Their spring session registration opened on November 23 and they are offering an early registration discount until January 9, 2021.  Spring classes begin on January 25.  Consider giving the gift of the arts this holiday by purchasing a gift certificate to go towards any class, lesson, session, or performance.  Gift certificates can be purchased by calling (440) 951-7500 x100.  With COVID-19 having a financial impact on funding sources, The Fine Arts Association is focusing on ramping up scholarship donations this season to ensure the arts are both accessible and affordable for all.  FAA’s “Giving from the heART” scholarship campaign runs from December 1, 2020 (Giving Tuesday) through January 5, 2021.  FAA proudly offers scholarships for qualifying students in areas such as financial need and creative arts therapies.

Your donation to the Giving from the heART campaign benefits FAA scholarships.  When donating online, you may choose which scholarship you would like to donate to.  Some examples of what giving from the heART can do for FAA students:

  • $25 pays for two children to enjoy an inspiring theatre experience
  • $50 provides five weeks of engaging arts and music instruction for a senior citizen
  • $100 provides a young person 14 weeks of participation in a string ensemble
  • $250 allows a class of elementary students a day of creative arts instruction at their school
  • $500 pays for a young person to attend 18 weeks of private instruction on any instrument

To register for a class, lesson, or session, please visit fineartsassociation.org/education or call (440) 951-7500 x100.
