History:

On 1992, Cygnus was born from a concept developed by Maryann Cannon and Cynthia M. Domino to create a total arts school in the former McKee City School building in Egg Harbor Township. Their perseverance, resourcefulness, dedication and sweat equity transformed the school into a facility that met the Township’s needs.

After a year of development, Cygnus was incorporated as a nonprofit corporation on August 6, 1993. For the next 12 years, Cygnus continued to grow offering instruction in dance, art, drama, music, healing arts and martial arts.

Under Artistic Director, Cynthia M. Domino the school outgrew its original home. In 2005, The Township of Egg Harbor invited Cygnus to be part of the proposed Township Community Center. In June 2008, Cygnus Creative Arts Centre moved into its new home. This building houses traditional and new classes, performances, workshops, and art shows. Cygnus continues to strive for quality artistry.
