—Jennifer White (ACT alumni)
“I’ve had the opportunity to see these young people performing. You see the passion that they bring and that makes me feel good because I know they are on the right track”
— Former Mayor Rick Kriseman
“The Arts Conservatory for Teens works. It is giving children a dream, a chance, and a hope”
—Dr. Frank Biafora (Former Dean of College of Arts and Sciences USF)
