Mission Statement

Developing Artists (DA) is a nonprofit organization founded in 1999 that is dedicated to providing opportunities for underdog (underserved) teens to reach their full potential through a practical application of the performing arts. We give students from culturally and socioeconomically diverse backgrounds the opportunity to proclaim themselves as artists and to find their place and their connection to their community through participation in the arts as well as creating a supportive young artist community through our innovative signature program REBEL VERSES Youth Arts Festival.
