Organization Summary

The Performing Arts Corps is an in-depth and holistic actor training program spanning nine months for students aged 13-20 who are passionate about learning all aspects of professional theater and film. Students continually grow as artists in a challenging and nurturing environment while also honing business and life skills. The Performing Arts Corps program includes weekly classes, college and career counseling, participation in a leadership institute, intern and volunteer career development opportunities, and performance opportunities.

NorCal’s School Outreach program provides Title 1 schools across the Sacramento region after-school theater programs, arts integration residencies, professional development for teachers and teaching artists, social-emotional learning and arts integrative curriculum, and access to theater training for students in underserved communities.

NorCal Arts College Admissions Counseling Services is a holistic, identity-based college counseling service that encourages students to find their sense of purpose and embrace their life choices. We provide an array of services designed to fit the individualized needs of each student to assist them in pursuing their higher education and personal goals. Services are provided through informational sessions, workshops, and one-on-one sessions and include pre-admission preparation, admission guidance, essay workshops, and one-on-one counseling.

NorCal’s Leadership Institute offers students a variety of small group learning sessions, master classes taught by professionals, interactive workshops, and a multitude of volunteer/internship options that provide them a foundation for a lifetime of opportunities. Courses are designed to foster self-awareness and confidence and develop business and leadership skills with an approach that maximizes life potential while enhancing mental wellness.
