Today’s Youth, Tomorrow’s Leaders

Saltwater Performing Arts believes that every child has the potential to be a leader or a positive force in society.

Community Outreach

Saltwater Performing Arts believes that all families and children deserve the opportunity to discover their full potential through programs that engage the entire community.

Fosters Diversity & Inclusiveness

Saltwater Performing Arts believes in the value of every individual and that diversity and inclusion creates a global understanding of the importance of acceptance.

Building a Culture of Arts

Saltwater Performing Arts believes that providing a cultural education develops passion, creativity, imagination, and confidence which are critical for coping with society's challenges.

Mission

The mission of Saltwater Performing Arts, formerly St. Marys Children’s Theatre, is to provide a performing arts education that inspires and enhances the cultural life of the coastal communities of southeast Georgia and northeast Florida by offering a stimulating, creative and supportive outlet to children and youth, families and the community, helping them build self-confidence and character, while developing self-expression, independence, and responsibility.

Saltwater is more than theatre and entertainment, more than things to do, and more than family events. While those all play an important role in what we do, we see a bigger picture for our community, our participants, and you!

Vision

We envision a theatre program where young people are inspired, challenged, and driven to contribute to community and to be a leader in today’s world. We strive to develop the full potential of young people as members of the community, enhance the quality-of-life component with expanded exposure to the arts, and achieve the highest possible standards of theatre through artistic excellence.
