InStudio Workshops for Teens and Competitions

HCLA is a busy place! We are regularly collaborating with film festivals, dance competitions, college auditions and fairs around the country. These are a great opportunity to get to know the school, receive audition feedback, and perhaps even win conditional acceptance or a scholarship to our summer program.

If you would like more information about our workshops, faculty, and award process, please fill out the request information form at the bottom of the page.

(Please note, if you would like to register for these events, you must reach out to the individual event administrator. We've included social media handles where possible!)
