\"\"This grant will be used to help fund the Janice Wyatt Mississippi Summer Arts Institute CORE Arts residential summer camp, happening in June 2022, as well as provide partial funding for book purchases for students participating in the \u201cRead It, See It, Hear It, Be It\u201d program at the Bologna Performing Arts Center and Delta State University.<\/p>\n

Over the past three years, and factoring in the lingering effects of the pandemic, the \u201cRead It, See It, Hear It, Be It\u201d program through the Arts Education Office at the BPAC has distributed nearly 3,000 titles, about one-third of our annual service numbers of 10,000 K-12 patrons per year, with discounted books to go along with the School Time Matinee Series of performances.<\/p>\n

Scholarships and\u00a0workshops for both the School-Time Matinee Series (STMS) and the Janice Wyatt Mississippi Summer Arts Institute (MSAI) allows the Arts Education Office at BPAC to consistently serve a large number or patrons annually and allow for greater experiential learning that deepens the impact of the book distribution program.<\/p>\n

The book distribution program is so much more important for students now, many of whom have had very limited experiential learning opportunities in the last year.<\/p>\n

Funding will also create more scholarship opportunities for students to attend the Janice Wyatt Mississippi Summer Arts Institute, which provides arts education opportunities for more than 175 participants ranging in age from 5 to 18-years-old.<\/p>\n

PLUS Camp is a week-long, performing arts camp for children ages 5 to 11 held annually in July and the CORE Arts Camp is both a day and residential intensive arts camp for children ages 12-18 that will next be held in June 2022. CORE Arts Camp offers students colligate level courses and the opportunity to take classes at Delta State University as well as stay in the dorms, giving them first-hand college experiences and instruction prior to their high school graduation.<\/p>\n
