Situated in the heart of the Upstate, the Mosaic Educational and Arts Program serves as a symbol of hope and opportunity for youth and families navigating the challenges of a second language and cultural adaptation. With a mission to ignite joy, imagination, and cultural pride, Mosaic leverages the transformative power of the arts to foster a supportive and enriching setting for students whose primary language is not English.

From the very beginning, Mosaic has been dedicated to holistic development, providing a wide range of programs that address not only the artistic dreams of youth but also their academic and emotional needs. The after-school program acts as a safe haven, allowing students to delve into their creativity through cultural arts classes and leadership roles, while tutoring and family support groups ensure that both children and their families have the necessary resources to flourish.

Mosaic is breaking down the barriers that many families encounter, empowering students to embrace their identities while striving toward their educational aspirations.

In the years ahead, the organization plans to celebrate its students’ achievements through initiatives such as the inaugural Mosaic Graduation, which will honor graduates and alumni while highlighting their stories of resilience and success. These milestones not only showcase individual accomplishments but also serve to inspire the community, reinforcing the belief that every student can realize their dreams with the right support.

The Mosaic Educational and Arts Program is more than just a venue for artistic expression; it is a community catalyst that nurtures the entire family. With an unwavering commitment to equity and access, Mosaic is set to create a lasting impact on the lives of its students and the Upstate community. Through the ongoing support of partners like the Jolley Foundation, Mosaic will continue to cultivate spaces where imagination thrives, cultural pride is celebrated, and families can prosper.
