Project Performing Arts

Project Performing Arts Project Performing Arts empowers youth, children and teens, through artistic expression.

Project Performing Arts is a non-profit performing arts program located in Harlem for children ages 6-17 years of age. PPA opened for classes in September 2013 and received non-profit status in 2019. Classes in Dance, Theater Arts and West African Drumming provides students with low cost professional performing arts classes. We engage children and teens in professional training to enrich their liv

es, discover and nurture their individual talents and provide opportunities and experiences that broaden their perspectives, and foster transferable life skills developed through performing arts training.

The excitement of knowing that artist HEESU was coming to OnSTAGE2026 was already huge — but experiencing her presence in person was a whole new vibe.

For young people, feeling seen and validated can take many forms. Thank you, Heesu, for your love and generosity toward PPA, especially our IMANI dancers.

Your simple yes created a lasting impact. 💙💜

It’s the process of creating movement, phrases, and moments. It’s never just about steps—it’s the evolution—a journey of exploration, revision, storytelling, and growth. From the first idea in their rehearsal clothes to the moment they danced in their costumes, the piece evolved through trust, creativity, and the process.
