CAPA OUTREACH PROGRAMS IN CINCINNATI
CAPA’s mission is to foster and inspire excellence in all aspects of the performing arts for children and adults within Cincinnati and its surrounding communities through education and public engagement. There are many schools where students to do not have access to the performing arts. CAPA outreach programs work toward the goal of bringing the arts to underserved schools and communities. Through our generous sponsors and donors - and covering your processing fees on our tuition based programs - we are able to use those funds and partner with schools or organizations to bring the arts directly to a school or community.
Chase Elementary in the Northside - Now in its third year, this program has grown from 12 students to 35 at Chase Elementary! CAPA is providing ballet programming with an Afro-Caribbean influence and tap dance for students grades K - 6th grade. This dance class draws on foundation of ballet, teaching students' standard ballet techniques and vocabulary while combining with jazz and contemporary dance from the historical rich Caribbean community. Tap dance was added in the second year and is growing! The classes culminates with a recital at the end of the end of each session.
Dance Camp - In its second summer, CAPA provided a summer Dance Camp in June and July at the Contemporary Dance Studio is north College Hill. Lunch is provided every day through collaboration with Our Daily Bread. Campers marched/danced in the annual Northside July 4th parade - and were captured in the Cincinnati Enquirer! Camp culminated with a two hour dance recital for parents and friends showcasing the different types of dance and creative moves the students worked on.
Overall, CAPA outreach programs focus on the 4 Cs: Communicate, Creative, Collaboration and Critical Thinking. We are so happy to be able to offer these after school enrichment opportunities to our outreach partners! Thank you to a grant from Cincinnati Womens Club and supporters - CAPA couldn't do it without you! Interested in summer camp sponsorship for summer 2025 contact [email protected]
