UNLEASH YOUR CREATIVE SPIRIT

BOARDING OPTIONS
Every summer, students from across the country flock to central Texas for a one-of-a-kind performing arts experience. Texas Arts Project has quickly become a proven leader in the world of performing arts education. Outstanding teaching, direction, and performance experiences enhance skill, encourage cooperative work, and nurture self-confidence.

Senior Camp runs June 12-July 3, 2011. Campers between the ages of 13 and 18 study all areas of theatre and film, but concentrate in an area of their choosing: Acting, Filmmaking, Musical Theatre and Technical Theatre/Design.

NEW Senior Classical Guitar Camp June 26 - July 2.

Advanced Camp runs June 5 - July 3, 2011. Senior Campers may apply for the Advanced Program, an extension of the Senior Camp for the serious student wishing to study Acting or Musical Theatre at the collegiate level. Campers integrate with the Senior Camp for three weeks, but begin with an advanced week preceding the Senior Camp. There is an option to apply for the Week-long Advanced College Prep Camp only.

Junior Camps, for ages 9-12, focus on singing, acting and dancing. Structured classes combined with an intense rehearsal process and a lot of fun, make the Junior Camp a wonderful experience for the young artist. Broadway style songs and dances are rehearsed and performed at the end of the session. Session 1 (Beg-Int) runs June 5-11, 2011 and Session 2 (Int-Adv) runs June 12-25, 2011.

Texas Arts Project is not your ordinary summer camp. While we enjoy many standard camp activities, the real excitement comes when campers discover the joy of creation and the thrill of performance. Outstanding teaching, direction, and performance experiences enhance skill, encourage cooperative work, and nurture self-confidence. St. Stephens' faculty, college professors and regional and national working artists join together as we strive for excellence through an artistic program where students are actively encouraged to find the place where process meets product.
