The Arizona Academy of the Performing Arts is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to empowering motivated individuals to achieve excellence in the performing arts. Our mission is to create positive, inspiring learning and performance experiences, equipping them with the knowledge and passion to elevate their artistry.

We proudly serve through programs such as The Academy Drum and Bugle Corps and The Academy Winter Youth Guard. Our initiatives are designed to complement and enhance existing school arts programs, while also filling gaps in public arts opportunities across Arizona.

Our organization utilizes local facilities throughout Arizona and neighboring communities for rehearsals, design sessions, meetings, and performances. Many of our programs also travel nationwide, representing Arizona on a broader stage.

At the heart of our success is a vibrant spirit of volunteerism. From our Board of Directors and event committees to parents and dedicated fans, our volunteers are united by a shared commitment to our mission and the transformative power of the performing arts.
