NICA’S Vision

Unifying cultures through art.

 
 

When we sit in that darkened theatre or walk through a well-lit gallery, it opens us to experiences different from our own—pasts and futures we’ll never experience in our lifetimes. The stories that are told through sight, sound, color, or spoken word help us enter a journey of introspection. We are opened up to the interpretations of life through the eyes of others. Very often, we are opened up to compassion. Our empathy expands. Our ability for discourse grows. Dialogue, new ideas, and understanding are all made possible in a deeply thoughtful way through our direct interaction with art.

Niosha International Conservatory of Arts (NICArt) is taking its role to heart. As an organization focused on sharing the arts with communities all around and bringing cultures together, we believe we and the artists we work with are allies in creating experiences that transform and unify people.

The mission of Niosha International Conservatory of Arts (NICArt) is to promote the arts, culture and literature of local communities by providing access to various creative experiences such as
lessons in visual and performing arts, theatre production, music instruction, language classes, martial arts, and sports programs. Through our efforts, NICArt aims to:

✯ Provide instruction in fine arts.
✯ Offer facilities for participants to engage in the promotion and participation of artistic and cultural events.
✯ Create opportunities for participants to engage in cultural gatherings.
✯ Host and/or participate in events and activities that promote the arts, culture and literature of local communities.

“What art is, in reality, is this missing link, not the links which exist. It's not what you see that is art; art is the gap.”
