MISSION

Create and Discover Beauty

VISION

A Community Empowered by the Arts

Getting the Most Out of Your Experience Making the most of your arts investment is an important goal. To assist you in doing so, we encourage the following: 1. Meet your child's teacher and develop a rapport. Build a partnership that leads to lasting success for your student.

2. Demonstrate a positive attitude about their arts education. If you value it, they will too.

3. Help your child prepare. Make sure they practice and set time aside to prepare each week. Growth requires discipline. The arts provide a perfect training ground for developing this essential life skill.

4. Ask for help if you think your child may need it. Every child learns differently. You know more about your child then your teacher does.

Let the teacher know your concerns.

If you feel that the class or teacher are not the right fit, we urge you to follow the steps as outlined below.

1. You or your child attend at least three classes as a full participant.

2. As a parent, you observe at least one class.

3. You attempt weekly communication with your child's teacher about the class, its objectives, and how to make the most of the class for you and your child.

4. After those prerequisites have been met and you still are concerned about you or your child's progress, you may request a meeting with the teacher, department director (as applies) and the CEO. After that conversation, the student may be requested to join to give them a chance to detail their concerns.

To access our Summer 2024 registration policies, visit www.fineartsassociation.org/education/summer-at-faa/ or, if on-line, click here.

We hope that these opportunities to discover and communicate lead to the best possible outcomes for you, your child, and the teacher.

Theatre Arts Camp Jr. (grades K-3) Broadway Memories!

This fun, interactive camp engages campers in the theatrical aspects of music, dance, theatre, and visual arts. Campers are broken into three groups and rotate through different classes during their mornings at FAA. In this camp, your young performer will make their own Broadway Memories as they are introduced to the best group scenes and musical numbers from some of Broadway's most popular hits. Using scenes and songs from a variety of Broadway's biggest shows, then and now, your performer will be acting, singing, and dancing their way across the stage. They will also create marquee posters, props, and costume pieces during their art class.

Please note: Due to the age of the students, this program requires active parent participation to assist children with learning their script.

Campers will perform this musical theatre program at a ticketed performance on Thursday, July 25, 2024 at 7:00 pm in the Corning Auditorium.

Classes and rehearsals are designed as lessons in acting methods, dance techniques, and vocal music skills. Camp culminates in a fully staged ticketed production in the final weekend of camp. This year's show is School for Supers! It's back to school for all the kids at Stanley Martin Lieber Preparatory School for Gifted Youngsters. But Boo Schneider is the only student in the school that hasn't developed their powers yet, and they're in danger of being sent to...PUBLIC SCHOOL! To make matters worse, strange things keep happening on campus, and Boo is always in the wrong place at the right time. Can Boo's friends use their super powers to prove their innocence and solve the mysterious goings on at the Junior Hero's Challenge before it's too late?

A Message from our Chief Executive Officer Paul Holm An experience in the arts is like no other. At once, creativity, perseverance, empathy, deliberation, growth, dedication, contemplation, discovery, and community coexist. The arts make us better humans: better able to explore, express, question, think critically, and appreciate the beauty within and around us. At The Fine Arts Association, we are privileged to partner with you to create and discover art and all of these other human attributes under one roof. The possibilities are endless. No matter your age, experience, or aptitude, there is space here for you to create and grow.
