Dance, Voice, Theater & Visual Arts

Seaside Arts Center (Seaside) is an inclusive and equitable arts education environment providing world-class classical arts training in Dance, Acting, Voice, and Visual Arts. Through our generative approach, students develop their own, unique voice within their art; refine their individual style; and enhance their confidence, compassion and creativity. 

On site, in Carmel Valley, San Diego, students have classes in theater, dance, visual arts, and more. Each program emphasizes process over product, in order to boost children's belief in themselves as artists. Time and again, as a result of this unique approach, students have not only produced exceptional work, but because of their personal stake in the product, they are empowered to speak with conviction and confidence about their work. Our robust scholarship program ensures that these opportunities are afforded to any child who wants them, regardless of means and circumstance. 

Seaside Arts Center also partners with organizations throughout the San Diego community to reach children who would otherwise have little to no exposure to arts education. Through these partnerships our teachers currently provide the same high caliber arts education to students who are experiencing housing instability and to children whose parents are currently deployed or are in the penal system.
