arts-X-press students woke up this morning early with the help of their counselors. All the 
counselors have their own way of waking up the students. Whether it be with loud music blasting over the stereo or if it be a nice little knock on the door and a sweet voice saying “time to wake up.” All the students did eventually get up, get ready and make their way to breakfast.
After breakfast, it was time for our normal morning activities consisting of Creative Expression
and then Arts Workshops. The students are continuing to work on their amazing presentations for friends and family on Tuesday. It was time for lunch then before everyone was going to hop onto the bus and head off to Laguna.

Once we arrived in Laguna, all the students received a backstage tour of the Pageant of the Masters. They got to walk on the stage and see how three dimensional objects are given a two dimensional look. They also got to tour the costumes and makeup areas where the performers get ready every night. When everyone had finished their tour, the students got the opportunity to do some activities at the Festival of the Arts. There were three stations each student got to go to: Raku, printmaking and mixed media. Family and friends, your students are so creative! You will have an opportunity to see their work when they come home to you.
We walked then to a park in Laguna and spent some time playing more games, prepping for the talent show and then Pacific Symphony’s Conductor, Carl St.Clair, joined us again and got to talk with us once more! We ate our dinner at the park, which overlooked the Pacific Ocean. Once everyone’s stomachs were full, it was time to head back to the Festival of the Arts and Pageant of the Masters. We toured the art with our family groups for a little bit then headed in to see the show!
The Pageant’s theme this year was “All the
Worlds a Stage.” As the lights went down, the students were in awe. They got to see all the fun tricks they learned about on the backstage tour come to life onstage.

Once the show was over, everyone got back onto the bus. It had been a long day and everyone was exhausted. So they all got ready for bed, excited for tomorrow’s Parent Presentation.
Goodnight from arts-X-press!!
