In this vibrant and heartfelt conversation, Heather Tipps, owner of En Route Academy of the Arts, opens up about the transformative role of creativity in children’s lives—and how a single supportive environment can ignite lifelong growth.
Drawing from a rich family legacy of music, ministry, and teaching, Heather and her sister envisioned an academy that would reach beyond technical mastery to nurture the soul, confidence and resilience of every student, no matter their background. Learn about Heather’s musical childhood, the origin story of the Academy and the unique ways her team weaves faith, artistry and individualized encouragement into every lesson.
Heather recounts how the Academy’s offerings have evolved: what began as a handful of piano lessons now branches out into group toddler classes, private instruction in voice, guitar and drums and a flourishing art department where children experiment with drawing, painting and even digital media. Heather says the academy is a “second home” for many kids—especially those navigating insecurities, trauma or the challenges of foster care.
