Department of Media Arts

We invite you to join us for private music lessons and group classes.

The Butler Community Arts School, an initiative of the Jordan College of the Arts, opened its doors to the community in September 2002. BCAS is an arts education and outreach program that provides instruction in specific performing arts disciplines to all ages and abilities. Instruction is provided by carefully selected and trained Butler students ("Teaching Fellows"). Faculty offer mentoring, guidance and administrative support. This program has the dual mission of providing quality arts instruction at an affordable price while also developing community involvement and civic-mindedness in university students.

Need-based scholarships are available for most of our programs; please inquire at BCAS@butler.edu or complete the Scholarship Application Form.

BCAS Programs are provided with generous support from:

• Butler University
• Indiana Arts Commission
• Christel DeHaan Family Foundation
• The Indianapolis Foundation, an affiliate of Central Indiana Community Foundation
• Summer Youth Program Fund
• Lilly Endowment, Inc.
