Students and Parents Get a Head Start on
Planning for College at the
San Francisco Performing and Visual Arts College Fair


South San Francisco, CA – The San Francisco Performing and Visual Arts College Fair will be held Sunday, October 31, 2004, at the South San Francisco Conference Center from 1:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. This free event will provide high-school students with the tools they need to plan their future in the arts.

Sponsored by the National Association for College Admission Counseling (NACAC), the fair is designed to assist students interested in pursuing undergraduate and graduate programs of study in the areas of music, dance, theater, visual arts, graphic design, and other related disciplines.

Students and parents will learn about educational opportunities, admission and financial aid, portfolio days, audition and entrance requirements, and much more by meeting with representatives from colleges, universities, conservatories, festivals, and other educational institutions with specialized programs in the visual and performing arts.
