Founded in 1985, FSPA brings all performing arts disciplines together under one roof, offering Music, Dance and Drama training to both students interested in serious study and those who enjoy the arts for recreation. Beginners are welcome, and classes are available for students who wish to begin or return to the performing arts as teenagers.

Following the Spring Concert, prospective students are invited to try a complimentary class at FSPA. Classes continue at The School through June 20th.
