Cornerstone Creative Arts

Cornerstone Creative Arts is a Petersburg, Virginia-based production company dedicated to fostering the connection between music, theatre, dance, technical theatre, education, professional experience, and community.
Built on the belief that some of the most meaningful artistic education happens through experience, Cornerstone Creative Arts creates immersive opportunities where emerging artists learn by doing the work of the industry.
Our programs bring education out of the traditional classroom and into rehearsals, studios, performance venues, production meetings, workshops, and community spaces. Students and emerging artists work alongside experienced educators, artists, technicians, designers, and industry professionals as they take a project from its earliest creative ideas through rehearsal, production, performance, and reflection.

Through focused skill training, hands-on production experience, mentorship, professional connections, and access to working artists and organizations, Cornerstone Creative Arts provides young artists with opportunities to discover their abilities, strengthen their craft, understand the professional creative process, and begin building pathways toward their own futures in the arts.

Petersburg has always been a city shaped by history, culture, creativity and community. Cornerstone Creative Arts is investing in what comes next—creating opportunities for emerging artists to learn, produce, perform and build meaningful creative careers right here.
