Tuition free performance opportunities for high school students in Dance, Theatre, and Music
Moorpark College is pleased to announce the return of the Summer Arts Festival, an annual performance series showcasing the Dance, Music and Theatre Departments. The Summer Arts Festival is an annual performance series that not only represents our outstanding continuing and returning student and community population, but offers a campus-wide special admission opportunity for high school students who wish to supplement their education or simply partake in courses for personal enrichment.
With courses in Dance, Musical Theatre, Music, Theatre Arts and Technical Production, this summer’s program offers something for students of all levels, from beginning level training to opportunities in performance, production and choreography. Summer classes begin May 19 and June 16. See the summer schedule of classes online at www.moorparkcollege.edu. Apply online now at www.moorparkcollege.edu/apply.
