EDUCATION / KIDS ACT @ NVA

New Village Arts is pleased to announce its collaboration with Kids Act, a local youth acting program that has been teaching fun and exciting children's theatre for over 5 years! Kids Act classes are more than fun, they help develop your child's self-confidence and creativity. Each child is encouraged to step forward and shine in an atmosphere of respect and trust, provided by experienced, professional teachers.
