The Newark School of the Arts Celebrates its 45th Anniversary
In 1968, the Newark School of the Arts opened its doors with 75 students ready to learn and appreciate the art of music. The concept of NSA was the brainchild of two public school educators, Stella Lass and Saunders Davis, whose vision was to encourage Newark to become a more musical city. The faculty and students were able to turn a once neglected brownstone on Lincoln Park into a hub for arts and creativity. |
