Seeing Stars Embodies Mission, Promotes Young Performers
The annual Seeing Stars! Benefit is a favorite event among supporters of Flint School of Performing Arts (FSPA), and all funds raised go directly to the Seeing Stars! Tuition Assistance fund to offset the cost of music, dance and theatre instruction. The evening, complete with a strolling banquet of donated food samples from area vendors and an inspiring student showcase, is a tradition that has long embodied the new mission and vision FIM has adopted for the future.

We believe that diversity is what makes the arts – and all of life – interesting, challenging and noteworthy.

Music Therapy
Music Therapy
The FSPA’s music therapy services are provided by board certified music therapists (MT-BC’s), all of whom have clinical experience using evidenced-based musical practices to address health. Using the science of how music affects the brain and other areas of the body, the music is used to address non-musical goals such as: cognitive, physical, social or emotional needs. Sessions may include: improvisation, songwriting, group instrument play, music and movement, and structured music listening. No musical experience is required for individuals receiving the music therapy! Sessions takes place at the Flint School of Performing Arts and nearby community schools/facilities. Sessions are available for adults and children both in individual and group sessions.
