ARTS WORKSHOPS

 “I have never learned so much from any of my previous art teachers. From the basics to the nitty-gritty, they helped so much.”

Visual Arts • Theater • Music • Dance

Do you have a serious interest in exploring new arts areas? Are you an experienced arts student seeking challenges to stretch your skills and approach? These arts workshops offer you the opportunity to work in-depth with professional artists, writers, and performers. The Arts Workshops are designed for students ages 14 to 17, with an ongoing, serious interest in the visual and performing arts.

With the exception of our full-day Writing Intensive, students choose two workshops per session, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. Students who love to write have the option to match a half-day writing workshop with an arts workshop (see the Writing Workshop offerings). All workshops are led by professional artists, performers and teachers. Faculty, assisted by teaching apprentices, work closely and individually with each student. Each session culminates in exhibits and performances on the final evening and closing day.
