Casa Romantica’s Music Festival & Academy and Summer Dance Workshops
02.22.21
Applications are now open for Casa Romantica’s Music Festival & Academy and Summer Dance Workshops from Sunday, July 11–Friday, July 23, 2021. No application fees make this program accessible to all students.
Casa Romantica's summertime programming is not only award-winning but also a safe space for children of all levels to learn music, arts, and dance.
- Music Academy is limited to 25 students
- One-on-one lessons or in small groups of 5 for activity groups
- The Dance Workshop is also limited to only 10 students per class

Activities include daily private lessons, practice, music theory, and group activities in the arts. The Academy concludes with a recital put on by the students.
