The Lanti Foundation.
The Lanti Foundation is a 501(c3) and serves as the charitable arm of Lanti Performing Arts. As a non-profit arts organization, we are driven by our mission to change lives through education, outreach, and the performing arts in Union County, NC and surrounding areas. We provide top-tier educational programs and performances to students of all ages, background, and experience levels. We strive to empower students by providing inclusive, confidence-building programs that nurture creativity, teamwork, and leadership. By fostering a love for the arts, we hope to inspire brighter futures and a more vibrant community.
Serve. Give. Love.
Your donations and contributions directly impact our students and the community. Here’s how…
Student Scholarships
Student scholarships are completely funded by our amazing donors who give faithfully so we can provide financial aid to students who would otherwise not be able to afford music or theatre classes. We work with local programs and educators to help identify students who exhibit an interest in the performing arts and through an application process, we match the student with the appropriate class/instructor. Through our student scholarship program, we hope to use the performing arts to help grow leaders, creative thinkers, and world-changers.
Bridging the Gap
Donations are essential for sustaining and enriching the performing arts. They support captivating shows, nurture talent, and encourage artistic innovation while ensuring broader community access. Donations bridge the gap between the aspirations of performing arts organizations and the audience, uniting people in their shared appreciation for the magic of music and theatre.
Lanti Love Project
We firmly believe that we as a studio family have an obligation to teach the next generation that the world is bigger than just our small circle – we have to look beyond our walls and see the needs of others. This is why we provide opportunities for your child to perform, donate, and serve. We have monthly and yearly opportunities to impact local neighbors and international communities.

Student Leadership
Forte Leadership Team is a group of students (ages 12+) who desire to be leaders among their peers and in their community. Our goal is to provide opportunities to train and develop your child with life skills through the vehicle of performing arts.
Under the guidance of our studio director, Lanti teachers, area specialists, and our staff – your child will be welcomed into an encouraging and safe atmosphere to grow and learn.
