Cultural Arts Classes Registration Report—2006 RECOMMENDATION: Receive Report FINANCIAL STATEMENT: None • DESCRIPTION: The Heritage and Cultural Arts Division coordinates and implements a number of quality programs that strengthen community image, provide recreational and artistic experiences, and encourage healthy lifestyles. This goal is accomplished by providing diverse cultural program offerings in the areas of music, dance, film and visual and performing arts. Following is a summary of programs conducted during summer 2007. CULTURAL ARTS CLASSES: Cultural Arts Classes are intended to serve customers of all ages and cover a wide range of activities such as Theatre Camps, Dance Camps, Ballet, Piano, Guitar, Country Line Dance, Irish Dance, Drawing and Painting, Children's Art and Music, and others. Cultural Arts Classes provide an opportunity for participants to attempt new experiences, define current artistic skills, as well as providing a social setting for meeting new people and sharing cultural arts experiences with friends and family members. Cultural Arts Classes are taught by contracted specialty instructors. A majority of classes are taught in eight-week sessions but some are more or less than eight weeks and others are offered as one-time workshops. A total of 308 participants registered for Cultural Arts Classes during summer 2007, which was an increase of 4% over summer 2006. This was consistent with the successful summer registration numbers posted in 2005 and 2006, when a significant number of new classes were offered for the first time. The cancellation rate was 4% higher than 2006, although the average registration per class increased over last year from 8.25 to 8.56 participants per class. Popular classes included; Hip Hop, Ballet, Hula and Tahitian Dance for Children, Beginning and Intermediate Irish Dance, Kindermusik, Belly Dance I and II, All 4 Dance, Beginning Guitar for Youth, Art Experience for Kids, and Cartoon Workshop. Attachment 1 is a detailed Cultural Arts Classes Registration Report for summer 2007, which includes a breakdown of the classes offered as well as the registration for each class. Attachment 2 is a Registration Report for summer 2006 for comparison purposes.

Students also received guidance in hair, makeup and clothing for the performing arts. The camp served students from 7 to 13 years old.
