Illuminate
Encore Performing Arts is proud to feature Illuminate—the touring ensemble of our Aspire Performing Company. Made up of dedicated young artists who bring extraordinary commitment and professionalism to every stage, Illuminate represents the heart of Encore’s mission: to inspire, empower, and build community through the performing arts.
These talented performers are selected not only for their skill, but also for their ability to give an extra level of preparation, focus, and flexibility. Members of Illuminate travel near and far to share their music and joy with audiences of all ages.

Each performance brings new challenges and opportunities—from adapting to new spaces to learning material on the fly—and this group rises to every occasion.
