Arts-X-press is a summer arts immersion program for 7th and 8th grade students created by the Pacific Symphony in celebration of Cole Carsan St.Clair. 150 students are nominated by teachers throughout Orange County to come together for 5 days of creative exploration each summer. The program has two goals: 1) To expose students to all 5 performing and visual arts; and 2) To foster respect for and interest in each student’s individuality, talents, interests, and background.

Day 3 Session 1





Arts-X-press had an awesome Laguna Day! We kicked it off with a delicious and nutricious breakfast. Everyone was in a great mood and ready to go!



They then went to CE, arts-Workshops, lunch and right after that loaded onto the bus and headed for the Festival of the Arts in Laguna Beach. The students got a backstage tour of Pageant of the Masters then worked on their own pieces of art!





Finally, before Pageant of the Masters, students walked down to Heisler Park for some pizza and new games.










At the park, we had some very special friends join us.







Carl St.Clair and his family visited and hung out with the students. We then headed back to the Festival of the arts to see the show.
