About Us :

          Kids Unlimited Institute of the Arts was formed in 1988 in Redding, California by professional musician and singer, Dawn Hess. KUIA, or KU as we call ourselves, is a non profit organization with year round programs in singing, dancing and acting aimed to not only increase performance skills in children age 7 through 18, but also to instill positive life-lessons that promote confidence, courage and commitment.

          Since 1988, KUIA has been teaching the value of teamwork and pride in excellence. We believe that through positive experiences in music, dance, drama and professional level performance experiences, students develop a strong sense of who they are with confidence in their ability to work hard and achieve their goal. In a nurturing atmosphere of encouragement, enthusiasm and invigorating stimulation, students know they are valued and will discover a strong respect for others.

Our Mission

The mission of Kids Unlimited Institute of the Arts is to develop dignity, character and a sense of belonging in young people through the performing arts.
