This experienced team of arts professionals guides students in building a portfolio or audition skills for their next level of study: an arts-focused high school, college, university or conservatory.
Summer Arts Institute focuses on three areas:

This intensive summer arts experience connects students to community and cultural resources along with access to careers and lifelong learning in the arts.
