Our Story

Long Island School of the Arts is the vision of founder Sandra Pagano, come to life. As a native resident of Long Island, Sandra recognized a need for a cultural center to expand on and complement the work of the local libraries and schools.

Long Island School of the Arts strives to fulfill that need by offering a variety of classes in Dance, Acting, and Music for children and adults. Our exceptional faculty is made up of teachers and performers who excel in their fields, and who often bring real world expertise to their students along with fine education credentials.
