Paso Robles Youth Arts Center is a nonprofit organization founded in 1998 by Donna Berg. We provide community youth, ages 5-18, with accessible after-school classes in the visual/performing arts and creative expression. We rely on the generosity of our local community to fund our unique program model. Strategically located in the most underserved area of Northern San Luis Obispo County, we serve students with a variety of classes encompassing art, music, theatre, dance, and creative expression. Our program helps youth build confidence, explore creativity, and make new friends in a safe, wholesome environment.
