About the Arts at CHCA
The Arts at CHCA inspire students to explore their God-given talents through performance, creativity, and expression. With guidance from professional artists and experienced educators, students build confidence and skill in every medium—from vocal music and dance to visual art and theatre.
Our program is known for its excellence, with students regularly recognized at regional and national levels, including the Overture Awards and National Scholastics. From a young age, students learn that creativity is both a craft and a calling.
FOFA’s Impact
For over 25 years, FOFA has shaped CHCA’s award-winning Arts program through financial support and volunteer leadership. Members have raised more than $1.75 million and given countless hours to create meaningful opportunities for student artists.
