The Laity Arts Foundation was established to address special key areas that have a substantial impact on the lives of youth, teens and adults in the surrounding communities. Namely, consistent, quality-based artistic programming in which individuals can channel their collective energies into a constructive forum.
A non-profit private organization founded in 1989, Laity began with the dreams of Jim and Delayna Goins. The husband and wife team made a conscious choice to utilize their expertise to serve the inner-city youth in the Los Angeles area through the development of a comprehensive summer theatre workshop. Always popular and fun-filled, the program eventually grew to also include adults, and became known as a company of professionals who served the community through artistic and educational means.
Now seeking to become a thriving foundation in the Antelope Valley, Laity will continue to specialize in directive, meaningful instruction and confidence building through the performing arts and supplemental education. Teachers develop and refine social and cultural interactive skills and elevate artistic consciousness. The outcome is powerful: the student comes to realize their talent and is capable of comprehending their abilities while appreciating the achievements of others.
