Mission Statement
SPARC's mission is to profoundly influence young people’s lives through exceptional performing arts education.
About This Cause
We believe that every single young person in our community would benefit from SPARC programs. We are committed to improving the life of every young person in the Richmond region through high-quality, culturally relevant, and innovative programming. We will serve more students in the future by continuing the excellent programs already in place; refining the cultural relevancy of our curriculum; leveraging partnerships and relationships to reach new, diverse student populations; and continually evaluating whether each of our programs is accepting of all students. We acknowledge that, as a result of societal inequality, some youth have more barriers to participation than others. We are dedicated to lowering/overcoming these barriers for young people with disabilities, persons of color, LGBTQ+ youth, English language learners, youth from low-income families, and other underserved youth. SPARC is positioned to expand its work in this way because we have a proven track record of innovation in arts education, and we know from experience how transformational it can be for our community. Through our innovative approaches to arts education, SPARC is poised to help the Richmond community address issues of inequity, social injustice, discrimination, and other negative societal forces that challenge every community.
