At Pollock Properties Group, we have a deep and genuine Heart for the Arts. As artists ourselvesโ€”Vanessa a former dancer and Charlie currently co-starring on Broadway in โ€œThe Great Gatsbyโ€ and many, many team members who are also former Broadway actors and dancers โ€” we all understand firsthand the transformative power of arts education.

Born out of this passion, the Pollock Arts Fair, and this digital directory, were created to connect our community, kids and adults alike, with incredible local arts educators. Whether you're seeking a music teacher, dance classes, or visual arts instructor, we hope youโ€™ll find the perfect guide for your artistic journey right here.

As a real estate team, our mission extends far beyond home buying and selling. We believe in building community through generosity, service, and support for the arts. Since our founding, we've raised and donated almost $500,000 to local schools, arts initiatives, and charitable causesโ€”including our own Pollock Arts Initiative (PAI), a fund managed by the Achieve Foundation, which helps eliminate financial barriers for teachers and students to access instruments and arts supplies in the South Orange/Maplewood public schools.

Thank you for visiting. We hope this resource helps you or your family find the inspiration, instruction, and joy that only the arts can provide. If you find this resource at all valuable, please consider donating to the PAI so that we can increase access and equity to all the students in SOMSD.

Warmly,

Pollock Properties Group

About the Pollock Arts Fair

The Pollock Arts Fair has celebrated arts education and culture in our community for over two years. This year, weโ€™ve gone virtual โ€” giving families easy access to the regionโ€™s best creative programs, all in one place. Weโ€™re proud to uplift the artists, teachers, and schools that inspire us every day.

The Pollock Arts Initiative (PAI) helps underwrite instrument and arts equipment rentals at the elementary and middle school levels to eliminate financial barriers to student participation in arts programming, supplements Achieve Foundation funding of teacher grant requests for arts-related projects, and may be used to help maintain the districtโ€™s inventory of musical instruments and other arts-related equipment and supplies.

Through the PAI, scholarship awards for advanced training are be offered to Columbia High School students who demonstrate exceptional talent and are recommended by SOMSD faculty. Awards are tailored to studentsโ€™ specific needs for private instruction, classes and/or professional quality instruments/art equipment.
