About Colburn Community School of Performing ArtsThe Colburn Community School of Performing Arts (CSPA) serves students of all ages with classes in music, dance, drama and early childhood arts education, taught by acclaimed faculty committed to providing the highest quality teaching on a modern campus designed solely for excellence in performance and education.

Founded in 1950 as an open-enrollment school, the CSPA covers a broad range of styles, age levels and degrees of difficulty. Music classes include applied musical instruction, music theory, chamber ensemble and orchestral opportunities. Dance classes through the Trudl Zipper Dance Institute offer a wide range in disciplines from ballet, tap, modern, creative, jazz and musical theatre dance. In addition to their individual studies, Colburn students participate in a variety of community outreach programs and perform in more than 300 concerts and recitals each year, many of which are free and open to the public.

The Colburn Community School of Performing Arts has been accredited by the National Association of Schools of Music (NASM) since 1980 and is also a member of the National Guild for Community Arts Education.

Adaptive Music Program/Lessons for Individuals with Special NeedsThe CSPA provides a special program for adults and children with academic or learning challenges. The Adaptive Music Program (AMP) provides individualized music programming and adapted music instruction by qualified specialist Ms. Francesca Bori.

Students with special needs have the opportunity to learn to play a musical instrument within a therapeutic environment designed to develop one’s own potential. This process begins with a structured music-based assessment of motor skills, behavioral, social and emotional levels, attention and communication ability. Monthly meetings with parents and yearly written summaries provide an opportunity to review the progress of the student. For more information, please contact Ms. Bori at [email protected]

Registration ProceduresTo be placed with an instructor for private lessons, all new students must first submit an inquiry at www.colburnschool.edu/cspainquiry. Please visit the website for further instructions on the inquiry process.

All students must register before they can attend class. Space is available on a first come first served basis. Continuing students have two weeks of priority registration.

Welcome to Colburn's Community School

We are very pleased to announce the appointment of Susan Cook as the next Dean of the CSPA. Susan has over 25 years of experience in arts administration. Her career began in the Chicago area where she held progressively more senior positions at the Merit School of Music, Sherwood Community Music School at Columbia College Chicago, and Midwest Young Artists.

Prior to her appointment at Colburn, Susan served as Dean, The Royal Conservatory School (RCS), in Toronto. Working closely and collaboratively with her staff, Susan reinvigorated the community school by growing and developing an extensive and holistic music education model for music lovers of all ages, with a clear continuum of instruction from infancy through adulthood.

She received her Master of Music Performance from Northwestern University, and Premier Prix du Saxophone at the National Conservatoire of Bordeaux. Susan also served on the faculty of DePaul University from 1994–2014 and Carthage College for seven years. She has toured with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra under Riccardo Muti, and performed with many of Chicago’s premiere orchestras including Grant Park Symphony Orchestra, Joeffrey Ballet, and Chicago Opera Theatre.

It has been wonderful to see the continued growth of our student population over the years. Not only are families returning year after year, but many of you promote our school to your fellow friends and neighbors. And for that, we thank you for your endorsement. To help us manage the 1,800 + students and each of their unique schedules, we will be launching a new online registration platform. This will improve upon our current system, which will allow family accounts, online payment plans, and much, much more. Please help us streamline our registration processes to make the experience more efficient by registering online this year. Continuing students will receive login details in July with further instructions on how to register online for classes and private lessons.

Thank you for being a part of the Colburn Community School of Performing Arts. We look forward to seeing you on campus.

Parents play a major leadership role in strengthening the Colburn Community School. We need your support. Tuition alone doesn’t cover the expenses of all the great programming your children experience here at Colburn. Come speak to me to learn more about how you can support our faculty, master classes, performances, fundraising events, and the Access Fund Campaign to increase scholarship support for our students.

All Private Instruction must take place on the Colburn School campus. Individual lesson schedules are arranged between the instructor and the

student. All new students must first submit an Online Inquiry Form through our website. The information will be transferred to the appropriate

department chair who will then contact the student to schedule an informal interview/audition within two weeks of receipt. Upon completion

of the interview, the department chair will determine which instructor, if any, the student can be placed with. Please go to

www.colburnschool.edu/cspainquiry to submit your inquiry.

*Special Rate Teachers have

higher rates, please contact

the CSPA office for more

information.

2018-19 Jury Requirement:As an important component of the learning experience for all students who take private lessons, a jury examination is required for all students in CSPA. Scheduled dates and times for juries will be coordinated by each Department Chair for the String, Voice, Piano, and Woodwinds, Brass, and Percussion Departments and the Dean’s office. The jury experience will be in lieu of one lesson for the academic year and feedback from the jury as well as the private teacher will be provided to both students and parents. The Colburn School greatly values this as an important learning experience for each student.

time. Prior to enrollment, an extensive application process begins with submitting an Online Inquiry Form. Student placements have already been determined

2018-19 Jury Requirement:As an important component of the learning experience for all students who take private lessons, a jury examination is required for all students in CSPA. Scheduled dates and times for juries will be coordinated by each Department Chair for the String, Voice, Piano, and Woodwinds, Brass, and Percussion Department. The jury experience will be in lieu of one lesson for the academic year and feedback from the jury as well as the private teacher will be provided to both students and parents.

Families can receive up to two parking decals upon completing registration . However, a parking decal does not constitute a guaranteed parking space. On a busy day when there is a line of cars waiting to enter the garage, students may be dropped off in front of the school on Grand Avenue. There is a loading area in front of the doors across from the Broad Museu m. After dropping off your student, please make your way to Lower Grand and patiently wait in line for a parking space to open in the garage. I f you do not wish to wait for a spot to open, offsite parking at a discounted rate is available at Lot #3 on the southeast corner of Olive and 2 nd Street. Please inquire at the Cashier window to purchase validations in advance.
