About Nevaeh’s Art Academy
Alexzandria Bell was only 15 years old when her life was tragically taken during the Central Visual and Performing Arts High School shooting in St. Louis in 2022.
Known for her bright smile, love for dance, creativity, and outgoing spirit, Alexzandria inspired those around her through her passion for the arts and her dreams of building a future through education and creativity.
Founded in November 2024, Nevaeh’s Art Academy was created to honor her legacy by providing youth with safe spaces for healing, mentorship, education, artistic expression, and community support.
What began as unimaginable heartbreak became a mission to protect, uplift, empower, and inspire future generations through the arts.
Today, Alexzandria’s legacy lives on through every child encouraged, every dream supported, and every safe haven created within this movement.
