The Baton Rouge Center for Visual & Performing Arts (BRCVPA) is a unique place to learn “BIG” and have lots of fun!

Our theme for the 2024-25 School Year is “Connect to Create!” At BRCVPA, we understand the importance of having positive relationships between our teachers, students, parents, families, and community. BRCVPA is a “dream team” that works together to help our students be excellent in the fine arts (visual art, drama/theater, dance, instrumental music, and vocal music); and excellent in the core subjects (English/Language Arts, Mathematics, Science and Social Studies) through arts-integration.

BRCVPA will be housed at our temporary swing space at 7600 Boone Avenue, Baton Rouge, LA (the former Kenilworth Middle School Site) for one more school year! We are excited about starting the 2025-26 school year in a brand-new, 21st Century school building and campus (2040 S. Acadian Thruway, Baton Rouge, LA 70808)! Our new building will be designed to enhance our strong fine arts program and rigorous arts-integrated curriculum.

Our temporary campus will have colorful works of art on display throughout the campus and arts-integrated student work visible in the hallways for all to see!

In our classrooms, you will observe our students learning creatively at high levels and engaging with each other collaboratively. In our Arts Halls, you will hear the joyful sounds of the choir singing a new song coupled with the orchestra practicing their musical selections. You will see our students learning dances of various styles and cultures and getting messy creating in the art rooms. Onstage, you will see our students practicing for their next drama production.

If you are looking for a great school that promotes student academic achievement and thrives in the fine arts, then the BRCVPA family (also known as the “All-Star Nation”) is where you belong!

We are Baton Rouge Center for Visual & Performing Arts: “Home of the Arts.” ​
