The 2018 Academy Summer Program is a wrap! It was a joy to have these kids as part of the Academy community last week. They worked extremely hard throughout the six-day intensive, and their dedication and passion were evident in the inspiring sketching, painting, dancing, singing, filming, writing, and acting we saw on Saturday. Our faculty is so happy to have had the distinct pleasure of working with these students. We hope they feel proud of what they accomplished working with their peers within the Academy curriculum. We hope to see you again soon!

"We all create: whether it be art, a business, a family or any other form of creation. And that’s enough to lessen the gap between what we perceive as “us” and “them”. We’ll never all agree on everything, but we all certainly have the capacity to understand one another." Isle Marquez from the @luminartsculturalfoundation Speech Contest!

"The truths art explores might not allow us to completely forget our predispositions and beliefs, but they do allow us to see things from a fresh perspective. The more art we observe and make, the more insight on different perspectives we gain. And the deeper we understand others’ perspectives, the more we may come to empathize with them." Leo Ritterhoff from the @luminartsculturalfoundation Speech Contest!

"The world needs such acts of community that are intrinsic to theatre and art. The listening, focus, and respect generated by such circles and communities are invaluable to how we treat others and make the world spin." Molly Bremer from April's @luminartsculturalfoundation Speech Contest!
