Every Student is an Artist

Advantage Arts Academy is a tuition-free public charter school in Herriman, Utah. Our rigorous curriculum is paired with arts integration to provide an enriched classroom focused on academics and creativity.

Our students are successful learners with opportunities for growth and creativity. We invite you to learn more about our arts integration program, to come take a tour of the school, or to reach out with your questions.

The arts, it has been said, cannot change the world, but they may change the human beings who might change the world.
