Welcome to MadCAP!
Dear
friends,
MadCAP’s
mission is to provide opportunities for people of all ages to work in
creatively challenging projects that inspire and nurture talents in
the performing arts. During MadCAP’s Summer School of the Arts, MadCAP
artists foster a spirit of mutual support amongst all of our
performers from the youngest to the oldest. A kind and respectful
atmosphere is the expectation and the “norm” in our rehearsal studios
and beyond as we help artists of all ages develop their craft in a
community of supportive staff and fellow performers.
I can’t wait to
start working with all of you!
Kjerstie Johanson,
Artistic Director

MadCAP's
Mission
MadCAP's School of
the Performing Arts provides opportunities for all young people to
work with professional teaching artists in creatively challenging
programs that encourage young people to realize their highest level of
artistic potential.
MadCAP is a member of the National
Guild of Community Schools of the Arts.
In keeping with the
Guild's Code of Best Practices, MadCAP's School of the Arts offers
broad, sequential programming that is responsive to community
needs and reflects our mission. We strive to
challenge each student to realize
his/her highest level of artistic potential by
affording students the opportunity
to participate in programs that culminate in
performances, presentations, or recitals. Instruction is sequential
and students have an opportunity to advance as they develop their
skills and talents in the performing arts. MadCAP engages a
qualified faculty of professional teaching artists. MadCAP's
studio and performance spaces are well suited and appropriately
equipped for instruction and performance.
MadCAP is open to all students without regard to race, creed, ethnic
background, physical or mental disability or income level. Tuition
fees are waived or pro-rated based on the US Government’s Housing and
Urban Development poverty guidelines.
