Multi-Arts Preschool

Arts Together’s Multi-Arts Preschool is the only area program to use an arts-integrated curriculum developed to meet N.C Foundations for Early Learning and Development and the National Core Arts Standards.

Through small classes with low student-to-teacher ratios, children gain confidence in their unique abilities and explore their own creativity and developing sense of self-expression.

  • Our arts-based curriculum builds a strong foundation for learning by using art, drama, music and dance/movement alongside other interactive, educational activities such as science, math, literacy and language. These enriching classroom experiences promote cognitive, social, emotional and physical growth in our students. Outdoor time is also part of each day, weather permitting.

    The Multi-Arts Preschool program begins September 3, 2024 and runs through May 23, 2025. Families may choose between 5-Half Day Plus Afternoon Chill and 5-Half Day Preschool.

    PLEASE NOTE: Due to our unique space, ALL children must be potty trained. Young 3’s are eligible for our Half Day and Lunch Bunch. Children ages 3 ½ to 5 are eligible for Half Day Plus Afternoon Chill.
