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.

Excursion Spotlight: Pageant of the Masters


Get ready to believe in the art of the impossible! All three sessions will be attending the 2011 Pageant of the Masters, Only Make Believe. In its uniquely theatrical celebration of "living pictures," it is a passport to explore worlds populated by ancient and modern superheroes and strange, mythical creatures. It will also showcase the creative expressions of artists who devoted themselves to conjuring everything from Victorian historical fantasies, illustrations for fairytales beginning "once upon a time," to futuristic visions of things to come, all in a breathtaking performance of "art that lives and breathes." arts-X-pressers will enjoy hands on activities with real artists at Festival of the Arts preceding the Pageant.
