Summer Workshop for kids!

The Summer Kidz Workshop is now taking applicants!

SIGN UP HERE!

Hello! We are pleased to announce our upcoming summer workshop! We are now accepting applications for students ages 8 to 17. Applications due Sunday June 28. 

This workshop runs for 3 weeks, with the first half of the afternoon concentrating on workshops, and the second half of the afternoon used for rehearsal for the play we perform at the end. The dates are Monday-Thursday July 6-9, July 13-16, and July 20-23 from 1pm-5pm, with the show on Friday July 24 at 7pm. We will provide snacks and water, but it is always a good idea to have your child bring their own water bottle and snacks if they prefer something in particular or have allergies.
The cost of the workshop is $35 per child. There are several scholarships available based on need. Please reply if you feel you are in need of a scholarship.

This workshop will be a combination of mini workshops for ensemble, improv, acting, choreography, swordfighting, set building, lighting design, and much more. This work will culminate in a play to be announced the first day of the workshop! The workshops and rehearsals will be hosted by qualified and experienced adults and Theatre students in high school and college.

Please make plans to attend the mandatory parent/guardian meeting on Monday June 29 at 5:30pm to get all the info. Please bring your registered child(ren) so we can meet them!

Multi-level Guitar Workshop with Laurence Juber — Saturday, September 22, 2018 at 2:00 — #LiveAtTheLyric!

Two-Time Grammy Winner Laurence Juber to Hold Guitar Workshop!
Saturday, September 22 at @:00PM

Guitarists, join us on September 22 at 2:00pm, for a special class from two-time Grammy winner, Laurence Juber!

Laurence JuberNowhere else in Arkansas can you get this opportunity to study under guitar virtuoso Laurence Juber. LJ will hold a two hour class in the afternoon before his 7:00pm concert at Harrison’s “Roots Music Palace of the Ozarks,” the historic 1929 Lyric Theater! The price for this class is $50—but, if you have a ticket to the concert at the Lyric on Saturday evening (or to Friday’s concert at Sunrise Guitars adjoining venue Sunrise Stage in Fayetteville), you only pay $40!

James White (local guitarist and vocalist and columnist for the Harrison Daily Times) writes, “Although some people refer to ‘Up Close with LJ’ as a master class, he thinks of it as a workshop. He says it’s multi-level and addresses a range of fundamental concepts, some advanced musical information and general guitaristic ‘tune-ups.’ There is a component he calls ‘guitarology,’ in which he explores differing finger style patterns that go back to the beginning of the instrument.

LJ has released 17 critically acclaimed solo albums which feature his celebrated arrangements of popular tunes and genre-crossing compositions. In Fall 2010, he released the highly anticipated LJ Plays the Beatles Vol. 2. He was voted “Guitarist of the Year” by the readers of Fingerstyle Guitar Magazine and named one of the top acoustic guitar players of all time by Acoustic Guitar Magazine—and he is on its cover again for the October, 2018 issue, as he releases his new album, which traces the roots of fingerstyle guitar. From classical to the Beatles and Hendrix, LJ is a master of it all, and is coming to share his insights with you!
