Creative Arts Academy

The Creative Arts Academy is Cuyahoga Community College’s preparatory program for pre-college students ages three to adult. We offer private and group lessons to students of all experience levels and backgrounds. Students study with distinguished faculty artists who are passionate about determining students’ needs and strengths, and maximizing those to provide the most rewarding experience possible.

We believe a vibrant arts curriculum creates a clear pathway to college. Participation in our programs – dance, dance mastery, media arts, music, and summer camps – instills discipline, respect and a deep sense of interconnectivity among our students. We feel that investing in our students will heal and strengthen our community in profound ways.

Periodically we are able to provide all members of the Creative Arts academy special opportunities to see world-class performances by top international artists. We are firmly committed to the belief that a significant part of the learning process in the arts is being able to experience the work of accomplished artists in their fields. The Tri-C Performing Arts season includes dance, music and theatre performances of the highest quality and we have the ability to offer free tickets to a number of these performances, exclusively to members.

Tickets to these performances are limited and will be distributed on a first come, first served basis. To book your free tickets simply call 216-987-6145.
