The Summer Arts for Youth Program, sponsored by the City of Coeur d'Alene Arts Commission, was created in 1998 with the intention of providing a low cost arts program for children with high quality arts education in a fun atmosphere.

This non-profit program is self-supporting through fees, but donations received help to provide scholarships for children, identified by local agencies as being in need.

The Summer Arts for Youth Program is held at the Harding Center for four weeks during June and July. Classes are geared for kids from ages 3 – 15. Program fliers are distributed throughout the schools and public places or can be downloaded by clicking here.
