"Many of us have a sacred space—someplace that has dramatically changed our lives in a qualitative way. That's what Interlochen is for young people. It's their space where they can explore their art without distractions. It's a stimulating environment where creativity is expected and celebrated.

"More than 2,000 students ages 8–18 study music, theater, dance, creative writing, visual arts, and motion picture arts for three or six weeks in our extraordinary camp setting. They come from all fifty states and more than forty countries. At Interlochen, the pace is quick and the applause frequent. I encourage you to experience the magic."
