See past students and instructors from Riverbank Performing Arts Academy in action, and hear from camp directors and parents!
Classes, workshops, and camps better prepare students for opportunities both throughout life and in the world of the Arts. Involvement with the Academy better prepares students for our Auditioned Youth4Youth Program where students are required to have Academy participation as a prerequisite. Through the Academy, students may also be considered for MainStage Productions.
The goal of the Academy is to provide opportunities for kids in the community to find a passion for the arts through watching or participating in theatre. We are thrilled to introduce arts at a young age to culture developing talent early.
