Our Teatro Camp, a partnership with Trinity Repertory Company, is called YASI-lito. It is an all-immersive experience, designed to introduce teens to the world of bilingual performing arts. Young people will prepare a short, Spanish/English bilingual performance to share with families at the end of the week.

The course is open to Latinx/Latina/Latino youth interested in exploring bilingualism, theater, and cultural expression. Instructors are fully bilingual and instruction will primarily be in English and “Spanglish.” The location is fully wheelchair accessible. This program is a partnership with Trinity Repertory Company and classes will be held downtown at Trinity Rep. Registration opens January 3, 2025.

Session: Drawing Expanded
This class will introduce and expand students knowledge of the fundamentals of drawing and visual thinking through the act of drawing. This class focuses on drawing as a core component of visual expression as well as expanding drawing into other media and techniques. Students will gain knowledge and experience in a variety of approaches, ranging from observational to experimental drawing so that they can have more tools to express themselves. 
 
Our instructional approach is based on mutual understanding and one that acknowledges and celebrates each student’s diverse background and unique needs. The curriculum is organized in a way that encourages students to not only realize their own personalized vision, but that also integrates group projects to promote community building and encouraging collaborative creative growth. 
 
Alongside instructional classes, students will create a personal drawing project of their own using learned techniques from weeks 1-3. We will also be working on a group project throughout the four weeks that will be used as a mural design or installation artwork.
