Happy Autumn, Everyone!
Moving into our next decade of programming, we are excited to not only work to expand our offerings but to look closely at what we are currently doing and refine to make improvements.
Being a part time operating organization, we are constantly seeking the most timely, efficient means of communication in all areas to serve you best. We are making some changes within the office. One procedure you can expect is that if NSAA receives a call or voice mail during the weekdays, Monday through Thursday, it will be responded to by the end of the next business day by an office staff person.
Additionally, Debbie Knuth has taken on the role of Stagekids Community Coordinator to answer all quesitons about any of our Stagekids shows. To reach someone most expediently, please use the following contacts. In addition, the office hours are posted below, so feel free to stop up in the office during those hours.
We look forward to continuing to grow in all ways. Your suggestions, support and continued interest in the arts is always appreciated.
Thank you.

Perhaps you may not know that North Shore Academy of the Arts (NSAA) expands far beyond the reach of our Grafton facility. Our instructors have been traveling to other cities for quite some time to bring PREMIER ARTS ENRICHMENT PROGRAMMING in the visual, performing and literary arts.
NSAA has brought fine visual and performing arts programming to Bayshore Town Center in Bayshore. Our Stagekids directors have been traveling to the Hartford Schauer Center for several seasons putting on high quality productions. Our instructors have taught music and drama in Pre-K facilities in Mequon and Germantown. Our performers have performed in Cedarburg, Mequon and Bayshore for various key events. We have gone into public schools to present assemblies and have fulfilled the need for arts enrichment in a private Milwaukee high school. We have worked with Nicolet and Homestead high schools.
With the 10 year anniversary of NSAA, we expect to continue expanding to fulfill the need for high quality arts programming in Wisconsin. We are excited to launch our 2010-11 season. If you would like for us to join you at your facility, in your community, on site at your location please email info@northshoreacademyofthearts.org attn: Sheri or Paula to discuss your specific arts needs.

Dear Friends,
We are overjoyed to share with you some amazing news today:
We have REACHED our fundraising goal for the Outdoor Classroom in memory of Felix!
The brick pavers sale was a huge success, big thanks to all who purchased bricks! Thank you to all donors who embraced this special project by donating their time, treasure and talents. We could not have done it without you! Special thank you to Dave Cavil who generously rose to the occasion and closed the funding gap.
Weather permitting, we’ll be breaking ground June 21st. We look forward to seeing you all at the Grand Opening early summer. I’ll keep you posted on the date and time for the opening ceremony.
THANK YOU!
