Welcome to the Young Entertainers Academy for the Gifted and Talented, a visionary institution founded by the dynamic mother-daughter duo, Sunday Stepney Lewis and Tuesday Lewis Harris. Our academy was born from a shared dream to train young artists in the skills of singing, acting, songwriting, scriptwriting, and music and film producing. Our mission is to prepare the next generation of entertainment entrepreneurs to be a light in a dark world.

Sunday recorded her first two singles, “He’s Worthy to Be Praised,” written and produced by Bert Cross, and “He Knows Your Struggles,” produced by Dr. Vernard Johnson, in 1986. At a young age, she began teaching and directing her father’s church choir, honing her skills in working with voices and music.
