The Community School of the Arts (CSA) seeks to be a significant community resource for arts education. Our mission is to provide professional instruction in performing and visual arts for students of all ages and abilities. We aim to link individuals in the greater Eastern Connecticut communities with the artistic, educational, and performance resources of the University of Connecticut and the Town of Mansfield.
In 2014, the Community School of the Arts (CSA) celebrates its 35th year in
serving the community with high-quality instruction in the arts. This year
also marks the initiation of a unique and groundbreaking partnership between the University of Connecticut and the Town of Mansfield.
CSA is a member of the National Guild for Community Arts Education.
Founded in 1937 by a handful of settlement-house music schools, the National Guild now serves over 400 non-profit, non-degree-granting institutions offering high quality instruction in the arts to 300,000 people of all
ages throughout this nation and Canada.
