Area students received 35 Scholarships from artsBASICS for 2017 Summer Arts Experiences

(Venues for summer student workshops included the Figge  and the Creative Arts Academy of the Quad Cities)

Musical Theatre for Tweens — Instructor:  Alex McCarthy

For all middle school students who love to sing and act! Participants learned what it would be like to land a role, studied and performed major musical numbers geared specifically for tweens.  The workshop concluded with a performance.

Script Writing — Instructor:  Alex McCarthy

Participants who have dreamed of telling a great story of their own and writing professionally, learned what makes a great story plot and wrote short scripts geared for students their own age.

The Art of Wizardry — Instructor:  Sydney Crumbleholm

Students climbed aboard the HogwARTs Express, worked with an assortment of materials and created a variety of “Harry Potter” related projects.  Participants designed their own wands and painted a wizarding pet of their choice.  Additional projects included dragon eggs, potion bottles, and more!  Creativity was highly encouraged, as each “witch” or “wizard” was unique!
