About LP

Lincoln Park Performing Arts Charter School–LP for short–is a place unlike any other. We’re a tuition-free, public charter school that offers a world-class education in the arts. And the experience we offer our students is so unique that they come from nearly 90 different school districts to get it.

Our students have appeared on Broadway and TV. They’ve played with national recording artists, and in orchestras. They’ve been published, and they’ve published books by famous authors. They’ve danced in professional companies. Their art has appeared in galleries. And they’ve been chosen to attend some of the nation’s top colleges and universities. You can read some of their success stories in our Alumni section.

What they all have in common is that they all learned their craft at LP. It’s located in a working performing arts center, next to a seven-acre park. The setting is beautiful. The atmosphere is professional. And the opportunities are  endless.

Whether you hope to have a career in the arts, or simply want the numerous benefits an arts-intensive education can provide, LP is the answer. Our students create art. We create artists.
