Youth Scene Study 2026
The Arts Council teamed up with Ctrl-ALT-Del and Skyline Dance to offer this free program. It was a fun, high energy play-based class where youth ages 7 - 15 learned acting basics like voice & breath work, movement, and early text work. It finished with a short scene performance for family and friends.
