"The most important thing I learned in my CAP dance class is to work hard and treat others kindly." Did you know? The driving force behind all CAP programs is the belief that the arts matter.

N’diyah joined a CAP string class in third grade with no experience playing an instrument. Now, she is a member of the CAP String Orchestra (supported by @kidshopealliancejax), was accepted to The LaVilla School of the Arts and recently was selected to be part of the Florida All-State Orchestra. “[CAP] has definitely boosted her confidence,” N’diyah’s mother said. “I’m so proud of her, and so thankful for programs like CAP that help catapult these children into things they probably would have never been introduced to.” Arts education is vital to every child’s academic, social and emotional development. Beyond any art project or performance, the arts add up to a well-rounded life. We need your help to ensure more children like N’diyah can experience the transformative power of arts education.

Dominiq never thought he would have so much love for dance. He began playing football in elementary school but discovered CAP’s dance class in fifth grade. Knowing ballet often helps football players improve finesse, speed and flexibility, he decided to give dance a chance. After only one year of dance classes, Dominiq was accepted to The LaVilla School of the Arts. He eventually quit football after receiving a scholarship to the Jacksonville Center for the Arts where he danced almost every night after school. He graduated from Douglas Anderson School of the Arts and earned top-six placement at the Youth America Grand Prix – the world’s largest international youth dance competition – and after time with Next Generation Ballet in Tampa and the Atlanta Ballet Company, he’s now in his third season with @balletmemphis. “Knowing at a young age what you want to do is hard,” said Dominiq. “But you feel a shift when you discover your dream. I still dream about dancing even though I’m doing it. There’s always so much more to learn and do.” Arts education is vital to every child’s academic, social and emotional development. Beyond any art project or performance, the arts add up to a well-rounded life. We need your help to ensure more children like Dominiq can experience the transformative power of arts education.

Nevaeh joined a CAP visual arts class in third grade and began to see her talent flourish thanks to the care, focus and attention of her teaching artist. Now pursuing a fine arts degree, Nevaeh says she wouldn’t have found her passion, or had the opportunities to advance and improve, without CAP. Her experience made her want to do better—not just in the arts, but in life. “CAP gave me the self-confidence to express who I am and be proud of what I’ve accomplished.” Arts education is vital to every child’s academic, social and emotional development. Beyond any art project or performance, the arts add up to a well-rounded life. We need your help to ensure more children like Nevaeh can experience the transformative power of arts education.

Participation in the arts is much more than an extracurricular activity. Countless studies reinforce what we see every day—children who participate in the arts consistently grow in their ability to communicate effectively, show striking improvement in class participation and academic achievement, and gain the insights, empathy and language needed to understand themselves, others and the world around them. Visit the link in our bio for more information on why the arts are important. #CAPkidsjax #TheArtsAddUp #artsed

Every child has a creative spirit. For some, it comes alive through the visual arts: turning blank pages and digital canvases into expressions of hope. For others, it breathes through their bodies – transforming notes, choreography, and words into personal statements of joy. Children develop the technical skills to prepare for these moments through instruction in the arts. Along the way, the arts develop their unique strengths – like self-confidence, creative thinking, self-respect, empathy and perseverance.

Did you know? Children engaged in the arts are more likely than non-arts-engaged peers to attend and perform well in college, volunteer in their communities and vote (Catterall, 2009). #TheArtsAddUp #CAPkidsjax

"After I performed on stage, I felt like a CHAMPION!" We need to teach children big ideas if we want them to lead big lives - and arts education can help us do just that. Thank you for being a champion for the arts, and for supporting CAP's work and the children in our community. #CAPkidsjax #TheArtsAddUp

"Based on my experience from this class, I think coping means expressing your feelings through the power of creativity!" Leave it to a student from our Art as Coping class to really highlight one of the many benefits of an arts education. The arts give children better tools to communicate - they provide the empathy, insights and language to understand each other and themselves. #CAPkidsjax #TheArtsAddUp #artsed

"Music makes me confident even though I’m shy." The difference CAP programs make in the lives of individual students is what truly motivates our work. The lessons instilled in these students through their CAP classes will stay with them for the rest of their lives. That is the power of arts education. #CAPkidsjax #TheArtsAddUP #artsed
