Creative Action

Making a difference all starts in your backyard and we couldn't be more proud to support the efforts of Creative Action and to help provide the necessary building blocks for the youngest of our creative community.

Spark Schools

Each student receives Creative Action arts integration programming 2-3 times per week all year long, including: 9-week residencies in digital media and performing arts, weekly music, dance, and visual arts workshops, 5-day interactive theatre performances for each grade level, weekly after school arts enrichment classes, and special interactive family nights and student showcases throughout the year. Spark Schools is one of the newest initiatives aimed at comprehensive campus transformation through arts integration. This is the second year to deliver the program in full at L. L. Campbell Elementary. Creative Action has partnered closely with the school and Austin ISD to develop this as a model site. Spark Schools is helping to transform Campbell into Austin's premier media and performing arts campus and preparing Campbell scholars for the future. We have seen promising results since its first year, including increased test scores and improved teacher retention rates.

Creative Action 

Creative Action is a nonprofit, arts-based, youth development organization that provides fun, hands-on creative learning programs in the classroom, in after school settings and in the community. Whether their students are creating original films, painting a mural, or performing an original play, Creative Action uses the creative arts to actively engage students in exploring age-appropriate social issues, building appreciation for diversity and learning how to make a positive difference in their communities.
