Olmsted Performing Arts' mission is to instruct, develop, and advance acting, 
music, and dance skills, to edify and positively affect all individuals involved 
in our organization, and to motivate staff, students, and volunteers to work at 
their best ability. We seek to serve the community with quality and affordable 
entertainment and to create a safe environment. Our practices are designed to 
build character, build confidence, build relationships, and encourage creative 
expression. Our goal is to operate a successful organization without 
compromising our values.  Olmsted Performing Arts was founded by a group of 
parent-volunteers in 2003.  Currently, it offers Main Stage, Youth Theater, and 
Dance Team performances throughout the year, as well as dance and theater 
classes.  Performances take place in the auditorium of the Journey Church , a 
1,200 seat venue.
