$500 Goal

PAC is an outreach ministry of St. Ann Parish in Normandy. The music program teaches children life lessons. These life skills include: time management, organizational skills, priority setting, grit, appreciating and respecting diversity, self-discipline, and promptness. The program offers free after school and summer music lessons for children from low income and immigrant families in piano, guitar, and new in 2025 ukulele, clarinet, violin, and flute. Lessons are provided at no cost. In return, families and students are asked to pay it forward in service to others and PAC. The music programs are open to children and youth K-12th grades. Performing arts camps in dance and theater are offered in the summer. 


The talented Arts people have made the PAC building a neighborhood showcase year-round, with colorful doors, crafted animals, and objects hinting of the activities inside. Volunteers provide free afterschool art club for youth and spring break and summer camps.  PAC adult Art classes for 2025 include Pottery, Acrylics, Watercolor, Mixed Media, and coming soon Caligraphy! Materials fees are minimal.


Quilters meet at the PAC Center on Wednesdays. This group does hand quilting, an almost forgotten skill. Almost always, there are two quilts in the frames. Quilts of all sizes, from baby to queen sized are produced. New quilters, of all experience levels are welcome. If you'd like to learn, please contact us.
