Founded in 1971, the Academy of Arts exists to train and inspire the next generation of servant leaders to properly use the universal gift of communication for others’ good and God’s glory.
The Academy of Arts lives out this vision through their multi-faceted organization which includes the Logos Theatre, a Christian Conservatory, 2 traveling ministries to 13 states, a professional film company, Venture Films, and supplying classes and training for all ages to “Make the Bible Come Alive in Minds and Hearts through the Power of Storytelling since 1971.”

Founded by The Academy of Arts in 2006 with the express purpose of impacting our culture for Christ through the powerful medium of storytelling on stage.
Our teams of high school and college-age young people travel to churches across the United States performing a gripping production to challenge and encourage every hearer.
These week-long drama seminars engage elementary and high school age students as they participate in preparing, rehearsing, and performing a full length original Academy of Arts stage production.
Our intensive, hands-on, apprenticeship program gives students invaluable training and real-life experiences in all areas of dramatic production.
Our film company exists to use visual storytelling to share the hope and light of truth in exciting and engaging ways.

FOUNDED ON TRUTH
Since 1971, The Academy of Arts has been dedicated to impacting our culture by “making the Bible come alive in minds and hearts” through gripping storytelling for stage and film. As we boldly and excellently craft stories that challenge the mind and engage the heart, lasting lessons of truth are planted into the soul.
The Academy of Arts has stood against the tidal wave of error, not by cursing the darkness, but by being a light! We continue to boldly and kindly share the power of God’s Word in creative and engaging ways through stage and film. As we create and craft compelling stories, we have seen thousands of lives changed as we bring young people into the process to disciple them and see them grow into powerful communicators for truth.

Thank you for your faithful prayers for our #summerdramateams!
Last week, our southeast team was able to minister at a Christian ranch for young people in and out of the foster system. Praise the Lord that 5 of these precious young people were saved after the performance! 4 of those teenagers are pictured here!
This week, a few of the team members were able to be a part of two other souls getting saved, outside of the performance!
The Lord is moving, not just in our dramatic presentations, but in and through the teams as they are out and about!
Continue to pray for these new believers, for their continued growth and discipleship!
Our teams are finishing up their final weeks! Find a performance near you: theacademyofarts.org/drama-ministry-program/

Praising the Lord for a great summer so far for our Northeast #summerdramateam!
Through some hazardous weather, van troubles, and even power outages, the Lord has been faithful through it all!
This summer, we have been able to see a wonderful testimony of His victory in and through all of these difficulties. In the midst of a busy summer, He is providing days of rest and fun activities for the young people to enjoy!
We are excited to continue traveling for 2 1/2 more weeks and continue to see what the Lord has in store!

"What's learned in song is remembered long!"
-Dr. Nicky Chavers
This is why we turn the classic tale of #TheTortoiseandtheHare into a biblically-based musical for elementary students! These campers are not only learning valuable principles of communication, but also foundational scriptures about humility and perseverance!
A camp will only last one week, but the lessons learned in these few days will stick with young souls for years to come!
Looking forward to this Friday's performance from our Week 2 elementary camp! Tickets: ci.ovationtix.com/35062
