History of the Astor

Astor Academy

Astor Academy

The Astor’s flagship educational program, the Astor Academy, helps engage, inspire, build confidence, and develop talent by providing youth, seniors, and adults with access to high-quality performing and visual arts training and opportunities for low to no cost.

The seeds for the Astor Academy were planted decades ago with the long-running Astor Theatre Camp, now the Astor Academy Summer Camp. Since its inception in 2024, the Astor Academy has expanded to embrace performing and visual arts, and more, for all ages. Everyone is welcome. Support the Astor Academy! Donate or volunteer.
