Arts on the Bayou

September 13, 2023

8:30 a.m. - 2:30 p.m.

Arts on the Bayou is a fun, hands-on experience at the ULM School of Visual and Performing Arts (VAPA) for 9th - 12th graders. After getting acquainted with vocal, instrumental, art, dance, and theatre professors, you will choose an in-depth music or art experience to tour facilities, meet students, and get a real sense of what it would be like to study at ULM.

Warhawks of all majors receive Talent Grants while participating in ULM ensembles. This means that even if you choose to study pharmacy, accounting, or any of our 90+ programs, you can still be part of the creative world (and get help paying for college!).
