Arts-X-press
A Transformational Experience
Imagine a place where budding young artists and creative thinkers come together to explore the arts, nourish their sense of self and make lasting friendships.
At arts-X-press, you’ll spend five days immersed in the arts. You’ll sleep in the dorms and eat meals in the cafeteria at Concordia University Irvine. You’ll spend your days exploring different art forms in professional arts spaces with some of the best arts professionals in the region. You’ll be challenged to express yourself creatively and collaborate with your fellow arts-X-pressers who come from all over Southern California.
I made so many friends: my confidence is boosted. Everyone was so friendly and fun. My workshops were a blast and I have grown and learned so much!

My daughter loved every second. Arts-x-press let her be herself and in doing so she found new friends to express herself with. She loved every day, did not want to come home and cannot wait until next year. The field trips they took are lifelong experiences and memories they will cherish forever. She came back a more confident person and I am so happy she was able to experience it. They had full days of taking in so much creativity, meeting artists in their profession and learning... opening their eyes to perhaps something they would not have normally gotten to do. I am very grateful for programs like Arts-X Press.
