Master Class Artists

Our Master Class Artists offer our students the opportunity to learn from and connect with the top leaders of the performing arts community.

In 2007, the Department of Performing Arts was awarded a grant from the Nathan Cummings Foundation to establish a series of Master Class Artists so that our students can attain the insight, knowledge and advice from successful performers, directors, producers and writers.
