For over two decades, Hamilton Wings has provided high-quality, free after-school and community programs for youth and families. Our legacy continues with YOU!
Our Vision
To foster a legacy of creative leadership where empowered youth collaborate with their community to create a future where possibility has no limits.
Our History
Founded in 1996 by (the late) Ann Jones, then principal of a challenged elementary school, and Dr. Rise’ Jones.
Hamilton Wings was named in memory of husband, father, and psychologist Charles Hamilton Jones.
​
Since its inception, Hamilton Wings has not only brought together expert artist educators but also diverse community and educational partners to provide young people with high quality arts enrichment that attends to their holistic and creative needs and affords them meaningful avenues for personal expression, personal and social responsibility, and tools for building their cognitive and social skills.
