Enjoy outstanding arts and acting education with instructors from Bemis School of Art and the FAC Theatre Company, set in the lush forest at the 400 acre La Foret Conference and Retreat Center.

The Fine Arts Center’s partnership with La Foret has a long history. Alice Bemis Taylor, one of the three benefactresses of the FAC, had her summer home at La Foret, and the Taylor Memorial Chapel built in 1929 was designed by FAC architect John Gaw Meem.

Stretch your imagination! Experience a variety of artistic styles and techniques, including painting, printmaking, and collage, while exploring elements of composition and design. Develop your acting skills - voice, movement and characterization - with theatre games, mime and improvisation. Art and acting will come together on Fridays with a special showcase performance and art exhibit for friends and family.

La Foret staff will provide swimming in the afternoons. Please prepare your child for a variety of activities and weather. No open-toe shoes or sandals. Students may arrive after 8:50am.
