The 2019 Summer Arts Enrichment in South Homewood was filled with lots of excitement as we provided our youth with something positive to do during the summer months while parents were hard at work. We will start receiving Registration Forms for our AYB 2019-2020 School Year program here online in late April.  

ELA brought the Christmas spirit to Homewood with our 3rd Annual Christmas Tree Lighting. With the help of District 1  School Board Member Sylvia Wilson, 

we distributed over 300 toys including bikes, X Box X Player, and lots of hot cider. To learn how you can help bring happiness and joy to the children of Homewood and help us with our Community outreach initiatives call Our office or send us an email at staff@elallainceinc.org
