We understand that creativity is not just about technical skill, but about emotional intelligence and social development as well. That's why we focus not only on the technical aspects of the arts, but also on the social-emotional growth of our students.

We don't impose any fees on children or families because we believe that the arts should be accessible to all. We rely on the generosity of our donors, funders, and investors to help us continue our mission and to support the future of arts education.

Lindsay's Legacy

Lindsay Kristen Pashkow was born on January 9, 1993 at Martin Memorial Hospital in Stuart, Florida. At two days old, she was airlifted to Shands Hospital in Gainesville, Florida, where she was diagnosed with a congenital heart defect. She had open-heart surgery at 16 days old and stayed at Shands Childrenʼs Hospital for 3 months following the operation. She followed up every 3-6 months after the surgery at the pediatric clinic at Shands and continued to thrive until she developed symptoms of a failing heart valve. In February of 2004, Lindsay had her second open-heart surgery to repair the valve, but to no avail. They had to do an Aortic Valve Replacement in August of the same year, making it Lindsayʼs third open-heart surgery. She received a mechanical heart valve. She graduated high school in May 2011 and moved to Gainesville, Florida where she attended Santa Fe College. She held a position as a Certified Nursing Assistant at the Pediatrics Emergency Room at the same hospital in which she received all three of her open heart surgeries- Shands Childrenʼs Hospital. In fact, she worked alongside Nurse Connie Nixon, her nurse since birth, and often sheʼd cross paths in the hall with Dr. Fricker, her Cardiologist. At the early age of 21 years young, Lindsay gained her angel wings on August 13, 2014. She passed suddenly from a hemorrhagic stroke. Lindsay touched so many lives and left such everlasting memories for all who had the honor of knowing her during her short time here on earth. Lindsay had a rich life full of love and laughter, regardless of her ailment. She refused to let it define her. She lived for her family- family was everything to her... And friends- friends were like family. To know Lindsay was to love Lindsay ❤
