we believe
in the power of art.
We started as a grassroots movement teaching
the arts in just four schools.
Today, our teaching artists serve 20,000 kids in
140 schools across all five boroughs of New York City.
WHY LEAP !?
Our unique arts education model, The LEAP Way, engages six core creative youth development experiences backed by 21st Century Learning & Innovation Skills. We ensure youth are not only at the table, but leading the conversation so they can be heard and seen as problem-solvers preparing to lead in a thriving creative economy.
LEAP provides educational arts programs that promote access and equity for NYC students
underserved in the arts.
