The
Coterie Theater
and The Culture House:
Powerhouse Creative Venues for Kansas City Youth
Although
many schools feel forced to cut creative arts programs in order to allow more
time for core subject instruction, we are blessed with local artists,
musicians, directors, choreographers, teachers, and actors who understand the
powerful connections between the discipline required to hone one’s craft and develop
habits which will help students become successful. They provide our youth with opportunities to explore
their potential and express their creative talents in Kansas City.

In 1996, I was invited to coordinate the opening liturgical celebration at the National Catholic Youth Conference in Kansas City. I was given the name of a young couple who moved to the area with a vision of founding a local home for promotion of the creative arts, community involvement, social justice, and mission grounded in a spiritual foundation. Their breathtaking choreography included performances of young local talents and transformed liturgical celebrations at future youth conferences.

Sixteen
years later, the vision of Jeremiah
and Mona Enna
flourished into what we know now as The Culture House and established:
·
Störling Dance Theater
·
Change Agent (music group and composers ensemble)
·
The Culture House Chat Night (a lecture series featuring the combined
support of The Francis Schaeffer Institute)
·
The Culture House Academy of the Performing Arts
Jeremiah
explains, “The Culture House
is
dedicated to shaping the future through excellence, education, social
engagement, and ideas.”
