Michigan Youth Arts is amazing! I participated in the festival all four years of my high school career and I absolutely loved every second of it. The arts has enriched my life so much. It has impacted me to the point that I am now studying to go into the field of performing. The diversity of the arts is amazing; I definitely see that they are trying to make the arts a more important part of young people's education.
Michigan Youth Arts Association is a wonderful organization staffed by caring knowledgeable people. Promoting and securing a future for Arts Education in Michigan schools. I am pleased to be a donor of this creative and impassioned organization.

Michigan Youth Arts is an amazing organization that helps promote and ensure quality Arts Education for children in the State of Michigan. Due to their generosity and capacity to organize, classrooms like my own have the ability to turn to them and request funding dollars that greatly enhance opportunities for students. I am thankful to have an organization like this in my State and rely on their support to help broaden experiences for my students each year.
