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.

1st Dayyyyy

Hey  parents,
So your little ones are currently catching there sleep to be all energized tomorrow. First, we started out the day with the students experiencing the new games which was lead by the awesome counselors. Following that the students had there first meal here at Vanguard. All of them enjoyed the great fruit and the H2-oooohhh yeeaahhh. After lunch we hopped on the arts-x-press party bus where we learned the classic "arts-x-press song" and many others. We headed to the Laguna Playhouse  where we enjoyed a wonderful musical "Life Could be a Dream" which was filled with many popular and talented actors. Following the show, the students were able to ask the actors questions about their experience as actors. After the very long ride home the students enjoyed their dinner. Then came the moment the students were looking foward to the whole day.  They recieved their arts workshops assignments that they will be participating in all week.


Then they went to their Creative Expression classes where they were able to expand their artistic minds. We ended the day with the highly anticipated 3 minute showers and a special night talk with their counselors.
We really look forward to keeping you posted on the rest of the week.

                                                                               Your cool counselors,
                                                                              Leah and Jacob!!!!!!!!
