Welcome to Renaissance Kids, Inc.!

     Renaissance Kids, at the Cunneen-Hackett Arts Center in Poughkeepsie, New York, is a unique place where students of all ages can experience a wealth of learning, creativity, and fun.  We strive to accomodate and nurture each child's growth while providing flexibilty to families -- new students can join anytime for most classes.  

      Whether your child loves to draw and create, is itching to play the piano or guitar, loves to sing or act, or is driven to express themselves through movie-making, we can guide them develop skills and express their individuality.

     Located in a landmark Victorian-Style building in the heart of a dynamic art and cultural center near the Mid-Hudson Bridge, our caring and knowledgeable staff is dedicated to the success of each individual student.  Class sizes are small, and our facilities include access to art galleries and a 200-seat theater!

     We offer parents and students a dynamic learning environment, innovative programs in the arts, music, music recording and performance, claymation animation movie-making, vocal training, piano and acting.  We also have private lessons in guitar, piano, and voice, and unique summer and year-round programs that develop musical, artistic, and learning skills.  Our students benefit from individual attention, performance and art exhibition opportunities, and a positive learning environment that is lots of fun!

    Registration for most of our classes and private lessons is ongoing -- join any time!  Our yearly class registration fee also covers all supplies and materials (that means music and art supplies!) for one year starting from the date you register -- and entitles you to a discount on our summer programs -- a great deal!!
