Praise Performing Arts Center, a faith-oriented studio at 18107 Longenbaugh Drive, Ste. C, Cypress, celebrated its grand opening over the July 4 holiday weekend.

Owner and founder Danielle Gamble, a graduate and former educator at Cy-Fair ISD, said she opened the center to provide children, adults and seniors with a creative outlet. The center serves students of dance, vocals and music, from classical to hip-hop to contemporary.

“The TV show ‘Fame’ was an inspiration for me, and it kind of stuck with me,” Gamble said.

Gamble has assembled a staff of former educators who have studied and worked in their fields of instruction, and the team strives to provide a positive and safe learning environment.


Praise is currently pre-enrolling students, and classes are scheduled to start July 24. 346-462-3777. www.praiseperformingartscenter.com
