Music allows the heart to sing.


The Salvation Army reconnects kids with the arts through after-school programs and summer camps.

The Salvation Army provides students with numerous opportunities to find their passion, whether it's choir, playing an instrument, writing poetry, painting, or becoming immersed in drama or dance. By funding after-school programs and hosting summer camps where kids can receive musical training and spiritual development, we give aspiring artists their start.

To find out about programs in your area, contact The Salvation Army nearest you.

Music Ministries

The Salvation Army introduces people of all ages to the beauty of the arts, helping them to use their talents to glorify God and bless those around them. From playing in The Salvation Army band to singing in the choir to leading Sunday worship and spreading Christmas cheer at one of our Red Kettles, we offer numerous performance opportunities and community programs for aspiring artists.

Music Camps

We help budding musicians shape their skills with summer music programs. Through extensive musical training and spiritual development, we nurture growth and inspire a future in the fine arts.

Arts and Education

Immersing yourself or a child in fine arts and in educational programming is a great way to lead a more fulfilling and enriching life. Some of our centers offer educational classes ranging from cooking to art classes in clay, painting and dance for youth and adults. The best part ? many of these courses are free!
