The Academy was founded in 2005 by arts and preservation leader John L. Belt, along with other community and arts advocates, to create an arts-focused public charter school in Oklahoma City.
We work with community leaders, volunteers, and patrons to meet the needs of our community.
We are committed to supporting and uplifting students and teachers in the classroom.
We strive every day to preserve the character and legacy of our historic school building.
Throughout the year, the Harding Fine Arts Academy Foundation hosts events that support our mission to fund and elevate the arts-integrated education at Harding Fine Arts Academy. These events bring together families, alumni, artists, educators, and community leaders to showcase student talent, raise critical funds, and highlight the power of public education driven by the arts.
Gifts to the Foundation impact the students and teachers by enhancing classrooms, expanding and adding programs and preserving our historic building.Â
