The power of the arts is like no other. It has the ability to inspire, to move, to heal and to connect us in ways that words may not. There is a special joy that comes with knowing that you have the opportunity to teach your children the importance of this language from a young age. It is a gift that will stay with them forever and be a part of their lives in the most meaningful of ways. 

At Garden Street, we strive to give children and their families the chance to explore and express themselves through music, dance, literature and art. We have seen firsthand the incredible impact that this has had on our community, and now that I am raising my own two sons here, I couldn't be more pleased to be part of a community that shares my passion for the arts.  Our mission is to provide a safe and nurturing environment for these young artists to grow and develop, and to continue to show our support and appreciation for the parents and caregivers who provide the support and guidance for their children's creativity.
