MONROE, LA 蜜桔直播鈥檚 School of Visual and Performing Arts is proud to present Arts on the Bayou, an immersive arts experience for 9th-12th grade students, which will be held at 蜜桔直播 on September 13, 2023, from 8:30 a.m. until 5:30 p.m.

The event, formally known as VAPA Day, will give high school students a unique glimpse into what it's like to be a 蜜桔直播 music or art student through hands-on activities, discussion with professors, and meeting current VAPA students.

A student interested in studying music will meet with a professor who will teach music skills and introduce students to 蜜桔直播 students, while giving the students opportunities to see music facilities and meet with music applied faculty.

Similarly, a student who is interested in art will tour art facilities such as Bry Hall, and will have the opportunity to have work samples reviewed by the art faculty. All students will also be given an opportunity to tour 蜜桔直播鈥檚 campus with university recruiters.

鈥淭he arts are important in all of our lives. If anything, the recent global pandemic proved this. Our communities need to see the impact the arts have on our students and continue to advocate for strong and well-supported arts education within their school districts,鈥 said Dr. Nicholas Bratcher, Director of the School of Visual and Performing Arts. 鈥淲e want to show that the arts offer pathways for enjoyment, developing a better well-being, and for many, a path to higher education. I hope that Arts on the Bayou, in tandem with the many other community outreach events that we offer, will help to ignite that passion. We can't wait to see you there!鈥
