2017 Summer Classes Directory for Music and the Performing Arts

Summer may be synonymous with trips to the beach or vacations, but when you're a mom you also know that the season is upon us when you're frantically looking for activities the little ones can do while school is out!

Does your child break into song without the need for prompting? Is she naturally graceful and nimble? Can he pick up a tune easily? Does she have dreams of being an actress? If so, your child could be inclined towards the performing arts. Help him/her develop these natural talents! Take your pick from this summer classes directory we've compiled for you:
