Continuously serving Kosciusko County since 1854
Wagon Wheel Center for the Arts announced the start of its Conservatory classes next week, open to students from second grade through adults, sponsored by Dave and Cynthia Illingworth.
This fall’s lineup includes musical theatre, dance, acting and improv, taught by Wagon Wheel’s professional instructors along with special guests, including members of the local improv troupe Everyone’s Tiffany.
Wagon Wheel Conservatory provides innovative, personalized programming designed to meet each student’s needs. Whether participants are exploring something brand new or sharpening existing skills, instructors adapt lessons to individual learning styles, ensuring a supportive and enriching experience, according to a news release from the Wagon Wheel.
Conservatory classes go beyond traditional arts education by offering opportunities to build confidence, courage, communication and teamwork. They also give participants the chance to experience Wagon Wheel from the inside, not just as audience members, but as active creators.
“It is rare to have the opportunity to learn from instructors who are so talented, yet also so kind, engaged, and interested in their individual students,” shares one student testimonial. “Our teacher was inclusive and adapted to different skill and experience levels so that everyone had a meaningful experience. It is evident that the people of Wagon Wheel have a genuine passion for their work and for the people they work with. They make you feel safe, and they inspire confidence and creativity in the people around them.”
