Programs featured students learning in dance, theater, music, media, and the visual arts. Instruction involved 10 to 40 sessions for classes on one or more grade levels; close collaborations with classroom teachers; and family events such as professional performances, workshops, and exhibitions in the evening or on the weekend.
