Meet Miss Patti...
    Patti Hupp, aka Miss Patti, is a teacher, musician, actress, and mother of 3.

Patti has been teaching children for over 20 years. She started her career with a degree from the prestigious American Academy of Dramatic Arts in NYC.

At the age of 25 she started a non-profit theatre company and began acting and producing theater in NYC. Every actress needs to try Los Angeles, and after stints on stage, film & tv on the west coast, Patti returned to NY and began a career in music while producing events for children's charities.

In 2005, she opened The Children's Center of Goldens Bridge, an art and music center for children ages 10 months to 6 years.

  What people are saying...

Miss Patti has worked for us for the past 5 years (at least). She is a huge asset to

our programs who I keep re-hiring over and over again! She teaches dance, art

and music classes and DJs for us. She is wonderful to work with and always prompt, organized, well prepared and great with the public. I would highly recommend

her (unless it conflicts with our programs – ha ha).  ~ Dana Mayclim

"Patti is an outstanding educator-talented, creative, passionate.

Most of our favorite artwork around the house was produced in one of Patti's classes.

My daughter can still tell you not only the techniques of how she made each piece but also what artist and style the children were emulating.

More important, Patti is nurturing and loving. She is kind and affectionate but not condescending, and the children love both her and her classes.

She combines music, art and movement in a warm, supportive environment, and the children thrive." -Lee. G., parent

I purchased your album on iTunes over the weekend. We love it.

Nico cries when I turn it off. I have to replay it again and again. 

Thank you for bringing joy to my family!"

"I just want to tell you that she had the best time today. When I picked her up

this afternoon she couldn't stop telling me about what you guys did and how nice

you were and all the things that you taught her already...in 2 hours! I wanted to say

thank you very much for a great first experience. See you next week! " -Melissa D., parent
