Florida School of the Arts

Days full of dancing! The Florida School of the Arts Dance Summer Workshop brought dancers together to train with guest artists, build new skills and explore different styles. They wrapped up the week by sharing what they've been working on at their final performance this afternoon!

From FloArts to a Tony Award! Congratulations to Florida School of the Arts alumna of the class of 2010, Qween Jean, on winning the 2026 Tony Award for Best Costume Design of a Musical for Cats: The Jellicle Ball. We are proud to celebrate this incredible achievement and all that she continues to accomplish!
