FRACC, in partnership with The Narrows Center for the Arts and Fall River Public Schools, presents the SouthCoast Creative Arts Lab — a dynamic afterschool program designed to inspire and empower 7th and 8th-grade students in Fall River Public Schools.
​
The Arts Lab provides a safe, welcoming, and vibrant space for youth to gather, explore, and develop their creative talents in the visual and performing arts. Through immersive, interactive lessons in movement, music, and art, students can collaborate, energize, and express themselves while nurturing their passion for the arts.

Each semester, 24 students are accepted into the program to work in smaller class sizes on creative and engaging art and music lessons. Each day begins with a movement/yoga/zumba session.
