A professional and dedicated staff, experienced in working with young people, provides a supportive atmosphere in which creative talents are nourished for a lifetime of enjoyment. The program’s goal is to encourage young people to explore new means of expression through their interest in the arts. Students choose from an extensive curriculum in art, creative writing, dance, music, photography and theatre.

Creative Arts at Keene is a partnership program with ACTING OUT, Life Art Community Resource Center, The Colonial Theater, Ray's Camera, The Keene Sentinel, and The Savings Bank of Walpole. Creative Arts at Keene is supported, in part by the National Endowment for the Arts, NH State Council on the Arts, The John A. and Carol A. Hubbard Fund, Kingsbury Fund, Agnes Lindsay Trust and local individuals and businesses. These donors help to hold down the cost of the program and provide scholarship assistance to those in need.
