The Cambridge Performance Project was founded in 1985 as a program under the Community Schools to provide high quality dance and theater classes and performance opportunities to Cambridge children ages 5-15. Each year CPP offers over 50 after-school classes in a variety of Cambridge public schools, providing access to arts education for children who have few other opportunities. The Cambridge Performance Project was incorporated as an independent non-profit and continues to work within the Community Schools program and receives in-kind support from the Department of Human Services Programs.

The Cambridge Performance Project is unique in the community because:

• It reflects the economic and cultural diversity of Cambridge through both our students and multi-cultural faculty;
• Our classes are in-depth and small so that each child receives much attention and many performance opportunities;
• Our student re-enrollment and faculty retention allow students to create lasting relationships with the artists teaching their classes.
• Our class offerings are exciting and innovative.
