What services does your business offer and what makes your business stand out from the competition? Little Prodigies Music and Arts Center provides creatives arts education through an after-school program, classes, and private lessons. We are the only comprehensive creative arts program in Pensacola. We believe that every child should have access to creative arts, and our mission is to open the doors to the creative arts for children and families in our community. We hope to inspire children and encourage the development of a passion for the arts.

What was the inspiration to start or run this business? While teaching in Escambia County schools, I realized that the "arts" are missing from many area schools. Our vision is to open the doors to the creative arts for many of these children. The creative arts are important for cognitive, social, physical, and emotional development. We hope to be able to provide services to many of the children in our community.

What do you love most about your job? I love seeing the joy that my students have while learning to play an instrument or paint for the first time.

What is the best reaction you've ever gotten from a customer? Our students never want to leave! This makes us happy to know that they truly love our program.
