About Us

"A School Without Walls for Success"

The Henry Hendricks Weddington School for the Performing Arts is a school without walls. Our mission is to serve as a vehicle for transforming the passion and energy that youth possess into life skills that will act as a foundation for their development into successful adults. We accomplish this by coupling rigorous, academic based arts education methodologies with practices that foster a process of self reflection and the development of a broadened social
.consciousness

Testimonials

Carlos F. Perales

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The HHW Vocal Arts Touring Ensemble was the first choir I ever sang in, and really showed me what it takes to be a singer. The HHW instructors advance their students by not only teaching proper singing techniques, but also enforcing proper discipline when not singing.

Sierra Sims

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

"When I first entered HHW Vocal Art Touring Ensemble it was during the pandemic and I was 14 years old. I joined because I wanted to sing and learn how to sing. I’m 18 years old now and have been a part of HHW for 4 years. They are truly family."

Stacey Morillon

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

"During my time at HHW, I was able to adquire so many skills and techniques I wouldn't have been able to learn elsewhere! HHW changed my life for the better. I wasn't planning on going to college, but because of HHW, I decided to pursue a career in Arts Management!"

Joseph Bolden

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

“My time in HHW has been an incredibly rewarding experience thus far. The huge support system here at HHW has helped me to grow as an individual, actor, and leader. HHW’s enthusiasm and dedication are an important reminder in the power of the arts and how it shapes lives and communities.”
