Using the arts to change lives through quality urban entertainment, life changing ministry & relevant educational programming. In a time when our arts educational system is under attack; where budgets are being minced; and administrators, teachers, and programs are being eliminated as a means to mitigate financial shortfalls, CBG Arts remains committed to providing the community with educational experiences in the arts. We are fulfilling our promises to the youth and future leaders of our community by providing them with rich and rewarding learning opportunities. Our performing arts workshops are taught by trained teaching artists who share the same commitment to inspire an appreciation for the arts and create a realm where each student can grow into the leaders they have been called to be. This means that the arts are not just a mere recreational activity but something that helps them find their voice and their purpose. Something that turns a group of students into a gang who uses the arts as their “weapons of warfare”.
