Interlochen Arts Academy's annual Festival is a three-day celebration of student accomplishments in all seven arts areas (creative writing, dance, film & new media, interdisciplinary arts, music, theatre and visual arts).
Each year's Festival includes performances, showcases, galleries and open houses for students to share their achievements with their families and say goodbye to their friends at the end of the school year.
This year, Classical IPR will broadcast select student performances from Festival live.
