What Youth Arts Coalition does

Mission

The Youth Arts Coalition provides free Music, Art, & Theater instruction to middle and high school students in the Greater Scranton, PA area. We are free of cost to all students who wish to participate and strive to provide a safe space for students after school.

As stated on its FY2025 Form 990-EZ.

Programs

  1. Free Music, Art, and Theater Instruction for students in the Greater Scranton, PA area. We held classes 3-4 nights a week with instructors in music, fine arts, and theater at no cost to any student. Students learned how to play musical instruments, paint & sculpt, and refined their acting skills with the freelance instructors we hired to provide lessons.
