Who are we?

Rise Up Community Arts, Inc. was originally founded in 2016 as Rise Up Chorus Inc in order to bring our Community together through singing. Our organization came about after a lot of soul-searching and thinking about the importance of music in our own lives. Why is music important? What is its purpose?

So, we reimagined the traditional arts program and have developed an artistic experience with a focus on our Community.
