Give a child access to the arts!

The mission of BAAY is to enrich children’s lives through exploration of the arts. BAAY serves over 1500 children ages 5-17 annually in our Theatre, and EduArts after-school enrichment programs. Through our programs, we create community, and teach children confidence, character, and creativity.

BAAY has a strong commitment to inclusion of all children, regardless of economic status, and maintains a generous financial aid program. Since BAAY’s founding in 2006, we have never turned away a child for financial reasons. In recent years, BAAY has provided partial or full tuition waivers to hundreds of students in our Theatre and EduArts programs, totaling over $40,000 in financial aid provided each year.

We believe that ALL children deserve access to the arts. Your generous gift makes a difference to local youth. Will you help today?
