Our Story

Otis Redding was dedicated to improving the quality of life for our community through the education and empowerment of its youth. Prior to his untimely passing in 1967, Otis Redding was already awarding scholarships to young students continuing their education. After his death, his widow Mrs. Zelma Redding continued his philanthropic efforts, and established the Otis Redding Foundation in his honor in 2007. With its roots in music, the Foundation offers opportunities for youth to exercise their talents and expand their abilities.

The Otis Redding Center for the Arts is a multipurpose space open to students of ages 5-18 who have a desire to explore their interest in all elements of music.
The center facilitates private lessons, workshops, and summer camps to help foster student’s creativity
