Experience
July 14th - July 25th


The Mission
For the past 16 years, the Festival's successful Performing Arts Camp has recognized the importance of student involvement in the arts.
We are dedicated to bringing a comprehensive experience to young artists by introducing them to a variety of performing arts disciplines taught by world renowned creators and educators. Tuition for PACE is underwritten 100% by the Festival thanks to the generosity of our donors

The Experience
Over the course of these two weeks the young performers will grow in the mediums of acting, singing, dancing and virtual media. The entire experience will culminate in the Young Artists Showcase: THE ROOM WHERE IT HAPPENS and a performance with Broadway Artists!
