About
The Artist Resource Center is a not-for-profit facility that provides artists with the tools and knowledge to grow in their craft, with practical training in both the creative and the business sides of the entertainment industry.
The breathtaking facility includes a 6-station computer lab, a creative lab to inspire collaboration, an editing bay, a conference room, and a lounge equipped to host various special events, training workshops, and artistic development modules.
The ARC also serves as a media production house for inspirational music and film projects, and hosts a tranquil atmosphere that will inspire the creation of content that will advance the cause of good.
We serve a community of creative individuals with immeasurable amounts of talent in the arts & entertainment world, many of which don’t always have the access to resources to bring that creativity to fruition. The goal of the ARC is to help artists discover their purpose in life, develop their talents, and in turn, bless the world with the realized creations.
Programming
Workshops & classes will touch on all different aspects of the entertainment industry, from dance to theatre, music to film, and much more. We want to ensure that artists not only have their creativity fed, but their inner entrepreneur is enriched as well.
