| | Submitted by Robin Moore | | | |
David Beal and Caety Klingman of Miramonte High in Orinda, Jason Long of Acalanes High in Lafayette, and Ruthie Shapiro of Campolindo High in Moraga are among 13 Contra Costa County students recognized as "California Arts Scholars" by the state's InnerSpark program.
The California State Summer School for the Arts (InnerSpark) is a rigorous, pre-professional, month-long training program in the visual and performing arts, creative writing, animation and film for talented artists of high school age. InnerSpark provides a supportive environment in which students hone acquired skills and explore new techniques and ideas for an intense and exciting learning experience.
Many of the students will participate in an intensive pre-professional training program at the California State Summer School for the Arts which will be held at the campus of the California Institute of the Arts in Valencia.
The Contra Costa County students recognized were Acalanes High School students Christianne Burns (Music-Vocal & Theatre) and Madeline Sharafian (Animation).
