Since launching in 2016, Summer Performing Arts With Juilliard has welcomed artists from 20+ countries each summer. Students arrive with a range of cultural and technical experiences and each student is challenged to grow, re-examine, and deepen their artistic skillset by the faculty. The festival is led by Juilliard artist faculty, which includes Juilliard alumni, faculty, and guest artists as well as industry leaders and professors from other top institutions, offering a breadth of lived experiences. The program provides rich opportunities for personal and artistic growth within this summer camp-meets-performing arts festival experience.
