QUESTIONS ASKED BY KIDS:
If I have friends at the Arts Institute, will I be in the same workshop with them?
If you specified a best friend you wanted to take a workshop with, we will make every effort to put you with that friend. However, if you applied late and your friend was already signed up in a workshop that is now full, you would not be placed in the same workshop as your friend.

How will I know where my workshops are?
You will gather in the center yard 15 minutes prior to the start of your first workshop in the morning. Your workshop teachers will call out your name and you will go with them to class. If you did not hear your name or you forget where to go, you can ask any counselor and they will tell you where you are supposed to be for each of your workshops. After a day or two you should know where to go for all your workshops.

What happens during breaks between workshops?
There are two short 15-20 minute breaks between workshops 1 & 2 and again between workshops 3 & 4. These allow the teachers to prepare for their next class and gives you time to have a quick snack if you brought one. The counselors will supervise you. If you forget where your cubby is (which is probably where you put your snack) just ask them!

What happens during lunch?
Lunch is one hour long and happens between the second and third workshop of the day. For the first 15-20 minutes, everyone will eat lunch in the center yard together. Then, once you are finished with lunch, you can just relax and talk with friends, play on the blacktop or grass field or just hang out with the counselors.
