East End Arts unlocks the creativity of area residents by offering high-quality art education to Long Island locals. 

Since 1995, the East End Arts Art & Music School has served over 1,400 students every year. From early childhood to seniors, programs provide year-round private and group instruction in music, art, design, and theatre. 

Our art school programming nurtures creative flexibility and lifelong learning in a wide variety of the arts. 

Students receive real-world experience and form bonds with their peers. Instruction is provided by working and teaching professionals, with degrees from prestigious institutions such as RISD, Pratt, Juilliard, Mannes, Boston Conservatory of Music, Berklee College of Music, and Moscow Conservatory of Music. Many instructors have received awards from high-caliber exhibitions and their art has been showcased in permanent collections at museums such as the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

When possible, East End art school programs lead to exhibitions and performances that showcase the student artists and provide exposure to the community. 

Art is essential for a child’s development. Studies show individuals who participate in arts education: 

• Are twice as likely to read for pleasure
• Are four times more likely to be recognized for academic and professional achievements
• Are four times more likely to participate in math and science activities
• Have strengthened problem-solving and critical thinking skills. 

East End Arts & Music School provides opportunities to Unlock Creativity and Build Community for life.
