Summer To Fall At Beck Center For The Arts

As summer unwinds and autumn gets closer, Beck Center continues to provide numerous arts experiences for the whole family. It’s not too late to register for August summer camps, and now is the perfect time to enroll in the fall semester. There are also plenty of exciting events, including Super Saturday, the Red Stage Summer Music Series, and the opening of the greatly anticipated 2016-2017 Theater Season.

The final camps of the summer will take place August 15–19. These include the Arts Sampler for ages 7 to 12, and the Ballet/Contemporary Sampler for ages 12 to 18. The Arts Sampler is perfect for students looking for hands-on activities in dance, music, theater, and the visual arts. The Ballet/Contemporary Sampler allows intermediate to advanced dancers to learn from different guest artists each day. Camps fill up quickly, so register today!

Be sure to keep the fall semester in mind, which begins the week of September 7. The full course catalog may be accessed online at beckcenter.org.
