PAW was co-founded in 2012 by August Garritano and Lena Miles. Both alumni of Brandywine Community Schools in Niles, Michigan, they wanted to give back to their community. With the help of Brandywine teachers and administration, including choir director Denise Boger, PAW launched its first summer workshop at Brandywine Elementary in July 2012 to students grades 3-6. PAW has been growing and improving ever since.

Performing Arts Workshops (PAW) is now a non-profit organization that provides experiences to students from any community, grades K-12. We offer summer day camp experiences and performance opportunities during the school year. We provide high-quality, integrative arts education that is affordable for all families. PAW Inc. holds their summer workshops at 
Brandywine Elementary School.
