The Northeast Performing Arts Group (NEPAG) is an award-winning, culturally-based arts and education program whose mission is "To develop and foster the creative talents of youth living in the Northeast/Southeast corridors of Washington, D.C. through performing and visual arts, as an alternative to street life and to teach the invaluable lessons of discipline, commitment, and team motivation." NEPAG has trained over 7,000 youth and helped more than 400 enroll in college. For 41 years, several of our students have appeared in motion pictures and music videos, performed with renowned entertainers, choreographers, and dance companies, including Debbie Allen, Cleo Parker Robinson, Disney, Alvin Ailey Dance Theater, and Dance Theatre of Harlem. NEPAG has received numerous honors and citations from the National Endowment for the Arts, Parents Magazine, and the District of Columbia Commission on Arts and Humanities. We are also featured in the Catalogue of Philanthropy: A Guide to Giving.
