Private Lessons

Adult students may enroll in private lessons to receive one-on-one instruction and coaching from one of the Community Arts School faculty members, all of whom are credentialed professionals in the instrument they teach. Lessons are offered at many times during the week with most of them occurring in the weekday afternoons, weekday evenings and weekends.. Students typically enroll in lessons that meet once a week for a half-hour for the full semester. The Community Arts School offers a rolling admission where students may enroll at any time during the semester.

Ensembles

Adults can participate in our two community-based choral ensembles or in a group adult voice class.  In addition, adult learners can participate in private lessons. All offerings provide a unique and supportive culture. Our two choral ensembles offer ample opportunities to perform throughout the year and partner with professional artists and often engage world-class clinicians during rehearsals and workshops.
