At Mind-Builders Creative Arts Center, we believe that every student deserves an arts education.
For this reason, we make need-based financial assistance available to our students by the following methods:
Merit Scholarships — Dance Students ages 10- 17 may audition for a Dance Merit Scholarship. Merit Scholarships offer discounted tuition (up to 100%), intensive training, and exciting performance opportunities for dedicated dancers.
Work Exchange — Adults may volunteer weekly for one free class (for themselves or a child). Selection is through an interview process. (Available only during Fall/Spring sessions.)
Tuition Assistance — Families can apply for tuition assistance to help cover the cost of group classes. Awards are based on current income and available funding.
