Welcome to the HP Arts Home Page

HP Arts is a non-profit corporation supporting HPISD arts programming. It was established in 1987 by a group of parents with children attending schools in the Highland Park Independent School District.

The specific purpose of HP Arts is to enrich HPISD students' educational experience by encouraging their interest and participation in the arts.

We feel a responsibility as a part of the Park Cities community, as parents and as your friends and neighbors, to help all the children attending schools in the HPISD find areas of education and experience which will give them the greatest opportunity to develop their individual potential as people."
