Confidence grows when someone is given the chance to create, explore, and be supported.
In FREE’s Fine Arts Programs, we see that growth every day — a dancer taking a brave first step, a singer finding his voice, an artist discovering pride in her own work!

Your support helps create those moments.
Moments of courage.
Moments of joy.
Moments where someone feels truly seen.

If you believe in the power of the arts to transform lives, we invite you to join us.
