The ArtSchool offers a wide array of classes and workshops ranging from acrylic painting to a vocal workshop. Eighty-four classes are available this fall for all ages and all levels of experience. The classes are taught by professional artists in a non-competitive, hands on environment. On weekends musicians from troubadours to bluesmen, Andean pipes to appalachian mandolins, perform in the Earl Wynn Theater. The World-Music concert series highlights emerging and established artists and the nationally recognized Jazz series presents regional and national jazz artists.
Family entertainment is centered around two programs.
The Super Fun series features artists dedicated to sharing drama, musical theater, puppetry, story telling, and music of all kinds with children and their families. The School Show series offers performances for area schools which enrich the school curricula in language arts, social studies, science, and the cultural arts. Technicians, stage hands, designers, and stage managers from the community are invited to apprentice these productions. The ACT holds open auditions for its three productions. A second program is the West End Project series which provides an informal theater space for artists to perform new material or learn new skills.
