• The Northern Lakes School of the Arts, an educational organization formed as an outgrowth of the Center's missions, develops the creative talents and abilities of local residents.  Our nationally certified school, unique in rural Wisconsin, offers local students the very highest quality instruction in music, drama, the visual arts, dance, writing, and other artistic disciplines taught by an experienced faculty.  The School provides the instructional basis for what happens at the Center in terms of concerts, performances and exhibits; the Center provides the perfect place where those developed abilities may be creatively exercised.
