Great events continue in May, throughout the summer! | |

Greetings from Dean Linda Kean
While we are, once again, condensing May and the summer months into one events calendar, we still have some great events to share. Don't miss the many summer camp opportunities that allow young students to have enriching, on-campus experiences!
In early May, our senior students continue to share their individual (and some group) exhibitions and recitals. We do not list those here, as there are so many on the schedule. Please visit the full calendar on our website for that schedule and to support our students.
We have enjoyed another enriching and fulfilling spring semester and look forward to celebrating our graduates. Thank you for your support. I wish you a wonderful summer, and look forward to another exciting schedule on this calendar for Fall 2026.
