The Governor's School for the Arts (GSA) is a center for innovation that develops excellence, nurtures creativity, inspires artistic vision and builds communities with a passion for the arts. Interested 8th-11th grade students may apply to one of six departments: Dance, Instrumental Music, Musical Theatre, Theater & Film, Visual Arts and Vocal Music. Each department trains students to develop in their art form with a focus on conservatory style study. Students attend their home schools for the first 3 blocks of the day, then travel to GSA for classes in the afternoon. The application and audition process typically takes place in November and December. The application is available online at https://www.gsarts.org/admissions.
