Educational scholarships for kids in West Chester, Pennsylvania

Darlington Arts Center is a nonprofit community center for arts education located in Garnet Valley, Pennsylvania, just southwest of Philadelphia. Our mission is to make arts education accessible to everyone, regardless of age, interest, ability, or income. We offer scholarships and outreach programs to children with special needs and economically disadvantaged youth in the Chester and West Chester urban areas. With support from the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts and the National Endowment for the Arts, we strive to build community through the arts. Our 2024-2025 dance classes are now enrolling, and we also host events like our Coffee House Concert series featuring talented performers like Danielle Tumminelli.

Located at 315 Westtown Road in West Chester, Pennsylvania, the Diane Matthews School of Dance Arts is a vibrant institution dedicated to the art of dance. As the headquarters for our 2024 Recital, we are excited to showcase the hard work and talent of our students. Our classes offer a variety of dance styles for all ages and levels, providing a fun and engaging way to stay active during the summer months. In addition to our regular classes, we also offer pop-up classes for those looking to try something new without the commitment. As the resident studio for West Chester Dance Works, our nonprofit outreach arm, we are proud to provide opportunities for the community to experience the many benefits of dance. Join us at West Chester's Porchfest to see our companies in action and celebrate the joy of dance with us.
