"This summer the Kentucky Center welcomed over 200 eager young artists from every region of the Commonwealth, including Shelby Arthur of Estill County High School (Architecture), to the heart of the Bluegrass, as The Kentucky Center Governor’s School for the Arts (GSA) celebrated its 25th anniversary at Lexington’s Transylvania University from June 17 to July 7.

During their three-week stay, 225 student artists from 43 counties were immersed in a rigorous schedule of daily seminars, masterclasses, lectures, hands-on workshops and field trips to regional arts attractions.

Instruction was offered in nine disciplines: architecture, creative writing, dance, drama, instrumental music, musical theatre, new media, visual art and vocal music.

Since 1987, more than 4,200 talented high school sophomores and juniors have attended the GSA summer program. The program culminated on July 7 with an all-day festival that celebrated the achievements of Kentucky’s young artists. - From "Citizen Voice & Times," July 12, 2012.
