About Us
Journey Performing Arts Center was founded in January 2004. A dancer all
her life, Samara Michelle, M Ed., wanted to create a safe place where
children can have access to life skills education through different performing
arts programs. Journey is funded by a number of local and national
organizations, including the Fulton County Arts Council, the Lighthouse
Foundation, Georgia Council of the Arts and Wachovia Bank. Supported by
both paid staff and a working Board of Directors, Journey seeks to expand
its reach to Atlantans looking for quality arts programming and education.
Journey serves the entire Atlanta community through its programming held
at the studio as well as outreach classes and performances held throughout
the city. Adults and children alike benefit from Journey’s dance, drama and
music classes as well as an in-house artists incubator program, after school
program, summer camp and professional dance company.
Our Mission

that allows urban youth and adults an outlet to express their individualities

drama and music.
Vision
