Calling all young artists entering grades 4-6!
This summer, Upturn Arts is excited to have five weeks of specialized programming for tweens this summer! Crafted specifically for our young artists who are ready for larger and more challenging projects, our tweens will get to really dive into their classes!
The first half of the day will consist of two hour-long classes, and the afternoons will be spent in a two-hour masterclass with one of our talented teaching artists.
– Session 8 (July 6 – 10): Interior Design with Charlie Peeler and Valentina Lostalo
– Session 9 (July 13 – 17): Visual Arts with Max Townsend
– Session 10 (July 20 – 24): Dance and Choreography with Dana Panepinto
– Session 11 (July 27 – 31): Visual Arts with Jihaad Wright
– Session 12 (August 3 – 7): TBD

– Structured, skill-focused curriculums: Engaging, project-driven classes with clear objectives and outcomes led by experienced instructors
