About Us
Who We Are
Igniting the flame within every artist
Igniting Arts Academy is a faith-driven arts education community based in McComb, Mississippi. We were founded on the belief that artistic expression is a powerful form of worship — and that every person carries a God-given gift waiting to be fanned into flame.
Our academy offers classes in dance, visual arts, music, theater, and more — all taught by dedicated educators who bring both professional expertise and a heart for ministry.
“This is why I remind you to fan into flames the spiritual gift God gave you when I laid my hands on you.”
— 2 Timothy 1:6 NLT
