WHAT TO EXPECT AT PAW SR.
​PAW Sr. is a one-week workshop for middle and high school students of all experience levels. Throughout the week, students prepare for a themed performance with rehearsals in choral music, dance, and drama, as well as individual coachings, solo opportunities, enrichment and performance electives, and social activities. This workshop is staffed with highly-qualified teaching artists from around the country, all accomplished in their field and passionate about sharing their expertise with students. PAW Sr. is perfect for any teen who loves to sing, dance, or act and is looking to build connections with like-minded people or for anyone just looking to try something new in a supportive environment. The arts have the power to be transformative during adolescence, and PAW provides a safe space for students to cultivate ownership in their artistry and learn to express themselves.
PAW SR. in 2020
In a year like no other, Performing Arts Workshops - PAW INC. had to quickly adapt our workshops to provide a safe arts experience for students throughout Southwestern Michigan and beyond. Due to the pandemic, PAW hosted workshops virtually for the summer. With the assistance of many talented staff members, the dedication of many incredible student artists, and an unwavering passion for the arts, together we persisted and created a PAW SR. like never before. Although we were unable to gather in person as we have in the past, we hold these virtual memories near and dear. Please enjoy our video production of PAW SR. 2020.
