SYPG was founded in 2005 as a non-profit dedicated to enriching the lives of children through the performing arts. SYPG's mission is to encourage and cultivate the artistically talented youth in our community by allowing them to perform, thereby enhancing community awareness and appreciation of the performing arts. SYPG works toward this purpose by targeting excellence in stage performances, arts education, and youth-centered programming that professional artists facilitate.
