Want to see a child's face light up?
 

See their eyes dance with laughter and fun?
       

See them accomplish something great?

Teach them art!

This is the foundation upon which the Riverside Children's Arts Center was built - the desire to see kids shine!

The not-for-profit Arts Center is a ministry of Riverside Avenue Christian Church, and offers after-school arts programs, workshops, and camps for elementary school aged children in the Riverside and Avondale communities of Jacksonville, Florida. Its goal is to open every child's mind to the wonders of artistic expression through creative, unique classes.

The Arts Center is located within the Riverside Avenue Christian Church facility at 2841 Riverside Avenue, and is staffed by caring, skilled instructors and volunteers who's objective is to help all children learn and have fun simultaneously.
