Today, arts-X-press spent all day on UCI campus.
In Creative Expression and Arts Workshops, the students were busy wrapping up their presentations for tonight’s Parent Presentation. We can’t tell you how much each student has grown through the risks they have taken at arts-X-press this week.
After our morning activities, we had our final lunch at UCI with Pacific Symphony musicians. Those musicians then stayed with us after lunch and gave us an Instrumental Spotlight Workshop where each student had the opportunity to take part in making music with these professionals. All these students are so creative!
Then, the students had another opportunity to spend time in another art form by having a Dance Spotlight Workshop. Each student learned how to express themselves through movement and how a simple movement can be transformed into dance.
After working hard with both workshops, the students had more time to open their own creativity by working on their Talent Show performance. We’ve got numbers varying from dances to skits to instrumental music, etc!
We ate dinner this time with our Arts Workshop groups to do final preparations for the Parent Presentations. After a quick group photo, it was time for the Parent Presentation! It was great to see what each group brought forward to showcase their week of learning and risk taking!!

Once the parent presentation was over, it was time for the students to have their Talent Show! We are so proud of them all and they are all so disappointed that arts-X-press is coming to a close. The night wasn’t done yet though, there was one more opportunity for the students to spend some time together…at the PARTY!
It had been a long day so everyone made their way back to the dorms, did some packing and got a goodnight’s rest.
The students are so excited to come home and share all they’ve learned and experienced with you!
