About

Performing Arts Educators (PAE) is a passionate non-profit organization headquartered in Palm City, Florida, committed to nurturing pre-professional performing arts talent and fostering arts education in Martin County and beyond. Our mission is to provide exceptional performance opportunities at prestigious venues in supportive, non-competitive settings, helping young artists build confidence, gain inspiration, and share their talents with appreciative audiences.

At PAE, we believe in making world-class experiences accessible to performers of moderate means by bringing together qualified groups for unforgettable events. Highlights include international tours to iconic locations like Tuscany and Lisbon, as well as annual invitational performances at renowned venues such as Carnegie Hall. These opportunities create lifelong memories and ignite a deeper passion for the arts.Locally, PAE proudly celebrates Martin County's vibrant performing arts community. We partner with organizations like the Stuart Sunrise Rotary Club to produce free, family-friendly events that showcase top youth talent. Our inaugural Palm City Patio Sessions is a perfect example—a relaxed outdoor festival featuring live music, dance performances (including the South Fork dance band and Florida Dance & Arts Academy), kids' games, and community activities under the lights.

As advocates for arts education, we honor the dedicated teachers who inspire students daily and work to make the arts inclusive and engaging for all ages. Whether through high-profile performances, community nights, or volunteer opportunities for teens, PAE strives to strengthen the local arts scene and build lasting connections.Join us in supporting the next generation of performers!
