I’m passionate about empowering the next generation of artists to realize they can do far more than they imagine.

I’m Christopher Smith, the creator behind Broadway’s Amazing Grace and the founder of Project Grace. What began as an unlikely idea ultimately opened on Broadway, an outcome many believed was impossible.

That experience shaped a deep conviction I carry today:
people are capable of transcending far more than they believe. In this short video, you’ll see part of that journey and why I’m committed to helping the next generation of creators discover what’s possible.

At the heart of Project Grace is a conviction that creativity is not accidental—it is part of how we were made. I believe God has placed within people the ability to transcend perceived limitations, and I’ve seen firsthand what happens when that potential is given room to grow.

Today, Project Grace works primarily with young people, teens through college age, helping them engage their artistic gifts in real-world projects alongside experienced professionals. Whether through storytelling, music, or live creative work, the goal is the same: to shape creators who are capable of impacting both their own lives and the culture around them.
