The University of the Arts
Precollege Summer Institute

"The University of the Arts is the only university in the nation devoted exclusively to the visual, media, and performing arts—a fact that makes this urban campus a diverse and creative place where ideas are generated and creativity is nurtured.

"The Precollege Summer Institute is committed to providing a stimulating environment where young artists learn about themselves and their particular interests in the arts.

"More than 250 students who are creative, curious, talented, energetic, and excited about the arts participate each year. Our programs foster investigation and exploration of the principles of creativity and focus on the development of each student."
