The BW Community Arts School is committed to ensuring that programs remain accessible to all members of the community. The generous support of several area funders allow us to engage students from all economic backgrounds in our Summer Arts Programs. Additionally, two Community Arts School endowments help support tuition assistance for academic year programs.
