We have an exciting year planned for our students and their families! Please check back frequently to see updated events and activities.


The Center for Performing and Fine Arts is accepting applications for next school year, 2008-2009 (grades 5-12). Please complete the Student Profile and return it to us so we may schedule an audition.

The Center for Performing and Fine Arts offers programming statewide. Students who can attend the facility in West Chester are welcome to audition. Students who cannot attend due to distance are also welcome to audition and may take advantage of the program from remote locations, through instructional videos, webcasting opportunities, mini-residencies offered twice a year in the fall and spring, and extensive online collaboration.

When completing the Student Profile, please indicate whether you intend to participate in the program in the West Chester region or via remote access. Whichever program you choose, you will have access to a well rounded arts education!

Please remember that for all PALCS students, participation in the performing arts program is by invitation only and is based on an audition and interview with performing arts faculty.

Thanks again for visiting!
