Enrique Parisca, Dreyfoos Musical Theatre Class of 2027, spent six weeks this summer at Carnegie Mellon University’s Pre-College Drama Program, immersing himself in the rigorous training and creative community of one of the country’s leading theatre programs.

From acting, singing, and private voice lessons to tap, jazz, ballet, dramaturgy, and acting for the camera, Enrique trained alongside passionate young artists and accomplished theatre professionals. He also participated in a six-week choreography workshop, where he and two fellow students created an original piece and performed it in a showcase.

“The six-week program was intense, academic, and rigorous: exactly what I needed to prepare for college auditions this year!” said Enrique.

Enrique’s experience was made possible with the Simon Benson Offit Summer Institute Scholarship awarded through the Dreyfoos School of the Arts Foundation.

Congratulations, Enrique! Break a leg this audition season!

Thanks to the Ellen Liman Summer Institute Scholarship through the Dreyfoos School of the Arts Foundation, Annabelle Clawson, Dreyfoos Visual Arts Class of 2028, spent three weeks at the Putney Summer Arts program in Vermont exploring a variety of art mediums and gaining experiences both inside and outside the studio. Throughout the program, Annabelle experimented with metal jewelry, stained glass, poetry, and acting in a short film

Annabelle stated "...the highlight of my time there was always in the mornings: where I got to work on a dairy farm with the best instructors/farmers ever and collected experiences and knowledge I would've never gotten, if not for Putney and the scholarship I received!"

Congratulations, Annabelle!

Did you know we have a darkroom at Dreyfoos School of the Arts?

Our Digital Arts & Photography students have the opportunity to step under the red lights and learn hands-on photographic processes, including developing film photographs, creating cyanotypes and photograms, and experimenting with diptychs and triptychs.

This is just one of the many unique resources Dreyfoos offers students to explore their creativity both digitally and hands-on!

This July, Mika Gonzales, Dreyfoos Strings Class of 2029, was selected to participate in a violin masterclass with Lynn University Professor Carol Cole, an internationally acclaimed violinist whose career has taken her to prestigious concert halls and music festivals around the world.

For the masterclass, Mika performed the Seitz Concerto by German Romantic composer Friedrich Seitz and had the opportunity to receive guidance directly from Professor Cole.

“Spending the day learning from Professor Cole challenged me to think differently about my playing, inspired me to continue growing as a musician, and reminded me that there is always something new to learn.” said Mika.

Throughout her career, Professor Cole has performed in more than 22 countries and at renowned venues including Carnegie Hall, La Scala in Milan, and the Teatro de Bellas Artes in Mexico City. She has also performed alongside artists including Ella Fitzgerald, Tony Bennett, Ray Charles, Gloria Estefan, Michael Jackson, Barbra Streisand, Barry Gibb, Ricky Martin, and Julio Iglesias.

Congratulations, Mika!

This summer, Isabella Fernandez, Dreyfoos Dance Class of 2027, spent five inspiring weeks in New York City training at The Ailey School’s Professional Division Summer Intensive. Her experience was made possible in part by the Cathy Kraut Lewis Dance Summer Institute Scholarship, awarded through SOAFI’s Scholarship Program.

“This experience was so much more than just dancing every day. It pushed me out of my comfort zone, challenged me in ways I didn’t expect, and helped me grow not only as a dancer but as a person.”

While training at Ailey, Isabella learned from inspiring teachers, connected with dancers from around the world, and immersed herself in New York City’s dance community.

“Being surrounded by so many talented and passionate artists reminded me every day of why I love dance and why I want to continue pursuing it. I learned to trust myself more, work harder, take risks, and appreciate the little moments that happen inside the studio.”

We’re incredibly proud of Isabella and proud that the SOAFI Scholarship Program could help make this transformative summer experience possible.
