CLARA is a Sacramento-based nonprofit that provides arts education, access, and resources to fuel creative collaboration in our community.

CLARA believes…

…The arts are an essential component of any thriving community 

…All children deserve to have access to robust arts education

…We all benefit when artists are empowered to develop their talents, crafts, and production in the place they call home.


CLARA provides...

  • Youth with in-school arts education programs throughout the Sacramento region.
  • Local cultural organizations with low-cost, long-term leases for administrative, classroom, and rehearsal space.
  • Community arts groups with performance and event space through our auditorium rental program.
  • Local artists with training to become teaching artists, which can lead to stabilizing income as teaching artists and mentors.
  • Schools across the country with arts access through digital arts lessons and curriculum.

Mission

CLARA provides education and resources to unleash the creative potential of local arts and culture in Sacramento.

We believe that arts education is the great equalizer -- providing arts learning alongside academic subjects has been proven to have an exponential effect on long-term student success. Therefore, we are committed to bringing high quality dance, music, and theatre programs to every student in Sacramento.

Needs

For our 10th anniversary, we are raising funds for two simple but essential improvements:

-- An upgraded website: Our current site, last designed in 2016, represents our organization in a very different place than we are now. Your support will make it easier for people to learn about and get involved with all the great programs we have to offer.

-- New chairs for our auditorium: to ensure that everyone using our community arts space has a seat that is comfortable and safe.

Thank you for your belief in CLARA and your desire to make a difference with our organization.
