WELCOME TO NSP!
N.S.P.'s mission is to develop and exhibit the talents of inner-city youth by using six components: Acting, Art and Design, Music, Fashion-Modeling, Dance, and Youth Leadership. Our organization supports the concept of learning through the arts, therefore, emphasizing the importance of an education in an advanced learning environment.
Our primary goal is to promote young artists in a positive manner. Through our programming (known as PROJECT P.A.C.T.: "Positive Activities for Children and Teens), we provide free membership for youth of all ages. Through their selected talent, all members are given the opportunity to create, perform, and exhibit his/her talents through various forms of exhibition. Our activities and events will include fashion and talent shows, competitions, youth conferences, field trips, community services, recordings, film, video, television, stage, and workshops. Our members are encouraged to plan programs, youth conferences, and propose ideas they feel are beneficial towards their community. Through these activities, each member will learn the values of life, respect towards self, and his/her community, dignity, self-confidence, and unity.

Through our Saturday program, our actors work through monologue and speech training; preparing for auditions and feature roles.
Through this team, they develop self-confidence, and maturity through character development. Actors will engage in portfolio/ photo sessions, through NSP’s commitment to produce resumes, and headshots for casting companies and studios.
Past work includes various Spike Lee film productions, original screenplays where our members have worked as extras, and self-promotions through NSP's annual showcases.
