is NOW OPEN!

ArtsPrep Mission

The ArtsPrep Program of the Tri-C Division of Creative Arts provides a
clear pathway to success through the arts for students of all ages.
ArtsPrep offers affordable and accessible training in the arts with the
goal that participants who remain in the program, regardless of artistic
talent, will be fully prepared to enter the college of their choosing.
By focusing on rigorous, professional training, ArtsPrep develops
confidence, mastery of craft, creativity, self discipline and
familiarity with a college environment. 

ArtsPrep Vision

Every student in the ArtsPrep program will be challenged to do their
best by a faculty of world-class teaching artists.  All faculty have a
performance degree in the discipline they teach, or have a long
professional career of distinction.  All instruction, regardless of
student age or experience, is at a college level quality tailored
specifically to the needs of our students.  Our commitment is to develop
students into "competent craftsmen" who have the opportunity to fully
realize their talent at any level they choose.  

(Course /Lesson dates and times may vary.  Check individual courses for
actual dates and times.)



ArtsPrep Dance Academy

The ArtsPrep Dance Academy exists to train students in the art of dance
and equip them with the skills needed for entry into college. The
program, available to all skill levels, provides students the
opportunity to explore various styles of dance, express themselves
creatively, and develop the technical foundation and physical
conditioning needed to progress into more advanced dance instruction.


Progressive classes in modern dance and ballet will prepare students to
excel technically and artistically.  To reap the greatest benefit,
students are strongly encouraged to take classes in both modern dance
and ballet as well as to explore various styles of dance from different
cultures and eras.  Excellence in performance will be developed through
a presentation at the end of each term.  Taught by the area's top
professional dancers, the Dance Academy's course offerings emphasize
discipline, commitment, focus, and fun! 

The ArtsPrep Dance Academy will provide opportunity for talented
students to acquire the necessary skills for success in college dance
programs and, ultimately, in the field of dance through the training
made available in our course offerings.
