Youth artist development
Young Artists
Coaching, mentorship, and opportunity access for young artists, including NAACP ACT-SO participants.
The work
Talent shows up early. Resources rarely arrive at the same time.
Creative Reach helps young artists prepare, compete, and reach stages that would otherwise be out of range, from the audition room to national competition.
In 2026 the community sent a Lafayette ACT-SO gold medalist to the NAACP ACT-SO national competition in Chicago. The campaign, and the sponsors who carried it.
ACT-SO Lafayette now has its own home: actsolafayette.org.
Creative Reach supports young artists and ACT-SO participants. ACT-SO is a program of the NAACP.
