We are thrilled to announce that over 300 youngsters, tots to teens,
were enrolled in our eclectic 2010 summer session of classes and
camps! As we move into the new season, we will continue to offer
some of the most innovative performing arts training for all ages
and skill levels in a nurturing, positive and safe learning environment,
throughout the year.
In addition, we'll present high quality, curriculum-based School
Day Performances that are open to the public, and fun Family Friendly
Performances on some Saturdays throughout the year.
We invite you to stop in and observe how children in our classes
and camps celebrate and support each other while they are immersed
in the world of the performing arts.
Make the arts a part of your child's journey…
