The Arts Institute is GIV’s largest and best-known Institute. Held on the campus of Castleton State College in Castleton, this creative arts program for high potential high school students in Vermont brings together outstanding artists and 130 artistically-minded students in a lively artistic community to celebrate and explore the creative experience. It’s two full weeks of creativity, excellence, challenge, and excitement.
A typical day includes community chorus, two class periods with professional teaching artists in artistic disciplines you choose, special student- and staff-led workshops, plus time to hang out and get to know peers and teachers. Visiting artists provide additional seminars and workshops, while the evening performance series introduces you to locally- and nationally-known performers.
