With auditions today and the Art Faire tomorrow, we have decided to reopen registration for Art Camp until tomorrow, July 26 at 2:00 PM. We know we put out the final call yesterday, but we know how busy everyone's summer is. We thought one more day might help some families who missed some of our posts before the weekend.

We hope a few more students will be able to join us for this experience.

Come see us today!
