THEATER CLASSES
You asked, and we answered! The Gaillard Education & Community Program and PURE Theatre are expanding our highly successful Summer Theater Intensive by adding an additional session during the school year for student actors in grades 7 through 12. In this 9-week intensive, actors will be cast in, study, rehearse, and perform a full production.

POETRY WORKSHOPS
Ekphrastic poems are a common tool used by poets to make their poems come alive. Poet Laureate and Artist-in-Residence Marcus Amaker will use various images – famous paintings, album artwork, video game images, and more – to guide students in writing poems that are vivid descriptions of a scene. Poet Laureate and Artist-in-Residence Marcus Amaker will teach students a poetry lesson that shines a light on each student’s personal story. During the lesson, students will learn the impact of the written word, and realize that their voice matters. During the experience, they will write two poems using guided prompts. At the end of the lesson, students will have the opportunity to share their work.
