News Briefs

Building on the remarkable success of last summer’s Interlochen Online, which welcomed over 1,400 students from 22 countries, our newly launched virtual College Audition Boot Camp will help prepare high school students for college-level music and theatre auditions through coaching sessions with world-class teachers, specialized workshops on the audition process, a mock audition showcase, and more. The four-day program runs Nov. 19-22.

We continue to livestream more student performances than ever before at live.interlochen.org. Join us this Thursday, Oct. 29, at 7:30 p.m. ET, for our Music Spotlight focused on music by Black, indigenous, and people of color composers. Students will perform in small ensembles and discuss the process they undertook to discover composers whose work is often underrepresented on the concert stage.

Do you know a young artist who would excel at Interlochen Arts Academy? Refer them today! We will waive their application fee, and any referred applicants who are admitted are guaranteed a scholarship of at least $5,000. (This program is not applicable for immediate family members). To learn more, contact Lindsey Anderson in the Office of Admission and Financial Aid at lindsey@interlochen.org or 231.276.7467.
