Student Showcase
Twice each year we host the Student Showcase, a capstone event where students prepare a song of their choice and perform it in front of a live audience of family, friends, and fellow students.
After two years of virtual events, we're excited to announce that the next Showcase will be live and in-person on Sunday, March 6th at ATAC Downtown Arts + Music (see below for event details).
This event is limited to the first 100 students who sign-up. The deadline to sign-up is November 30th.
