Is this group religious?
No, Artistic Fusion Performing Arts Co-Op is not overtly religious. There may be some future performing arts groups that are religious, but all students/families will have the opportunity to opt in or out of religious vs. non-religious groups. Some songs or performing materials might be religious in nature, but we will do our very best to keep them within the appropriate groups. Please just be aware that our performances will include ALL of our performing groups — meaning both religious and non-religious materials will be performed and represented.
Mustard Seed Children's Theatre is a religious group. However, they will balance religious vs. non-religious performances each year to offer the opportunity to as many interested students as possible.
Are Mustard Seed and Artistic Fusion the same thing or different?
Mustard Seed and Artistic Fusion were started separately. However, for leadership and organizational purposes, we decided to merge them in May 2026. Mustard Seed will simply become a performing arts group much like Collision and The Afterglow are separate performing arts groups within the overarching Artistic Fusion Performing Arts Co-Op.
Below is an image we created that depicts how we see these performing arts falling under the Artistic Fusion umbrella. Artistic Fusion is our big picture. The performing arts groups are the "paints" that create and make up the big picture.
That being said, Mustard Seed may operate a bit differently than the performing arts groups for older kids. We are still working out the details on all of this and they will be communicated in the future.
