Fall enrollment now open for more than 30 classes at AdventHealth School of the Arts, ages 3-18+
Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts has opened enrollment for over 30 fall classes at AdventHealth School of the Arts, including the launch of a new musical theatre program, Eighth Notes, designed for aspiring performers in grades three through five.
The program provides students with year-round training in acting, singing and dance while preparing them for future performance opportunities. Students will develop essential musical theatre skills through weekly ensemble rehearsals, where they'll learn the importance of collaboration, storytelling and stage presence while building confidence both on and off the stage. Participants will have access to specialized opportunities including masterclasses, audition preparation and personalized coaching.
In addition to Eighth Notes, fall offerings include musical theatre, dance, acting, voice and technical theatre for students ages 3 to 18+. Led by the arts center’s teaching artists, classes are designed to help students of all experience levels develop their skills in a supportive and creative environment.
"We are thrilled to offer a new program for young performers to strengthen their artistic growth and pursue their passions,” said Ryan Simpson, education director at Dr. Phillips Center. “Whether a student is stepping onto the stage for the first time or beginning to pursue more advanced opportunities like the Eighth Notes, our programs help build confidence and creativity in every student.”
To date, Dr. Phillips Center has welcomed over 192,000 students through AdventHealth School of the Arts classes and programs.
To support the art centers' vision of delivering Arts for Every Life, Dr. Phillips Center offers scholarship opportunities to provide accessible professional arts experiences. Scholarships are based on financial need and/or strong interest in the performing arts.
Support for programs at AdventHealth School of the Arts is provided by Hearts Foundation and NBA Foundation.
