At Harding Fine Arts Academy, we are committed to giving our community’s middle school and high school youth opportunities to learn, create, and thrive in a welcoming, diverse, academically strong, and art-enriched environment. The Academy is a tuition-free public charter school open to all, regardless of previous experience in the arts.
The President’s Fund for Excellence makes possible:
- Bringing master classes with accomplished artists to our campus
- Purchasing new musical instruments for HFAA’s band and orchestra programs
- Bridging the gap in funding for school breakfasts and lunches—ensuring no student starts the day hungry.
Your support will help our young artists, musicians, and dancers develop their skills, engage professional mentors, and perform at their very best academically—while also caring for their health and well-being.
Please join me in investing in our youth! Together, we can inspire creativity, nurture talent, and support the future artisans and leaders of our community.
We need your support!
With gratitude and hope,
Jane Sutter, President
HFAA Foundation Board of Directors
2025 Notable Activities & Achievements
20 Years in the making
On July 26th the HFAA Foundation hosted a 20 year all-class reunion. Stories of who we were then and who we’ve become now filled the room with over 100 HFAA former students and staff.
Mural
A vibrant student-designed mural now graces the first-floor hallway of HFAA, created through an Essential Arts Education grant from the Oklahoma Arts Council. Guided by professional artists in residence, community leaders, and faculty, students spent six weeks exploring local history, civic engagement, and the power of public art to tell a community’s story.
Teacher Lounge Remodel
HFAA Foundation made HFAA teachers' dreams a reality with a much-needed bathroom remodel. This improvement not only uplifts the daily experience of our teachers but also provides accessible restroom facilities on the second floor for guests with disabilities.
