California State University Summer Arts.

CSU Summer Arts, a "blank" of the California State University, is an international summer arts program of master classes and a festival of the arts. It’s a place where profound learning and entertainment converge, creating an inspired educational environment. A place where students live, work and learn alongside world-renowned professionals. A place where the nightly arts festival gives the public a glimpse into this life-changing work. A place where art is inspired and people are passionate. Intensive masterclasses plus a festival in the visual, literary, performing, and media arts.

History:

CSU Summer Arts was created in 1985 during an arts faculty institute in the woods of Kirkwood, California. The CSU faculty and administrators sought a way to meet the needs of the arts students of the CSU and supplement the programs of the CSU’s large and diverse arts colleges.

In that first incarnation in 1985, CSU Summer Arts was a summer dance program housed on the campus of CSU Long Beach. Due to overwhelming student needs, in 1986, it expanded its curriculum to include various arts genres, and in 1990, we added the Media Arts Festival.

The program was housed on the Cal Poly San Luis Obispo campus in 1986 and 1987 and then moved to the campus of Humboldt State University, where it remained from 1988 to 1995 before moving to CSU Long Beach for the 1996 to 1998 seasons. In 1999, Summer Arts relocated to the Fresno State campus through the 2011 season. The program was hosted by CSU Monterey Bay for the 2012 through 2016 seasons and is currently hosted again by Fresno State.
