"I attended the Fairbanks Summer Arts Festival for over 30 years. It was life changing for me. I began taking musical theatre and cabaret, working with wonderful artists like Chris Calloway and then joined the opera workshop program working with Guest Artists, Kathryn Harvey, Bob McCoy, Michael Pinkerton, Carolyn Hague and Louise McClelland. Each opportunity to sing and perform stretched me and provided tremendous growth as an artist."

The faculty were outstanding and I enjoyed having personalized attention from the teachers and coaches. Our days were filled to the brim with coachings, lessons, masterclasses, and rehearsals as we learned and polished opera and musical theater scenes that were performed at the end of the two-week festival. I learned a lot and enjoyed all the performance opportunities, but perhaps the best part of the program were the friendships made along the way with the other performers. It was an amazing two weeks filled with lots of music and laughter!
