We have an outstanding faculty of artist-teachers available in: piano; guitar; voice; violin; Suzuki violin, viola, and piano; ballet; preschool dance; theater and drama; musical theater; and much more!

The ACCP is the official school of the Ballet Theatre of Central Pennsylvania, and home of the Central Pennsylvania Youth Orchestra and the DramaWorks Theater program. Our mission is:
