Enchanted Circle is a multi-service arts organization dedicated to engaging, enhancing and inspiring learning through the arts. Founded in 1976, we partner with schools and social service agencies to address compelling educational and social issues, and provide equal access to arts inspired learning for people of all ages and abilities. Evolved to serve essential needs in education, we foster creative and critical thinking, improve academic achievement, and support social emotional health.
