It will feature opportunities for all students to work with high school students in each of the five departments in AVPA: Visual Art, Dance, Film, Music, and Theatre.

This workshop is in conjunction with AVPA's JAVA GALA XI, their annual benefit fundraiser and showcase. Workshop participants are invited to perform in the opening act of Java Gala!
