What we're all about...
SOCAPA offers arts intensives for teens. This is a chance to explore one discipline and experience working at a professional level in an intentionally supportive environment. Join us to find your people, tell your story, and challenge yourself among new friends and inspiring teachers.
The SOCAPA Team recognizes that world events, news, and the challenges that come with growing up can be overwhelming and intimidating. Bringing young people together to support one another creatively and watching tomorrow’s innovators and artists find their people is exciting and rewarding work. The sense of community and the sense of belonging that develops each and every summer is truly inspiring.
At SOCAPA we are proud of the professional level of training we offer to our students. We are also proud of the safe, inclusive, supportive, and celebratory environment we welcome our students to be part of. When you come to SOCAPA we ask you to work hard and take risks, and we know you can only do that when you bring your authentic self to the table. We are delighted to meet you there, and to help you take the next steps in your artistic and individual journey - wherever it might lead.
