High school seniors preparing for college in the visual arts or theatre performance are invited to join us for ArtPlay NextGen, a hands-on symposium featuring expert feedback, networking opportunities, and practical resources.

Participants will leave with:
- Personalized feedback on their work
- Insight into what colleges look for
- New connections with artists, educators, and fellow students
- A resource packet with audition tips, portfolio guidelines, and scholarship info
