TAP SOCIAL LIFE

At The Artists Program Chamber Music Festival, we take our music-making seriously, but we have just as much fun outside of rehearsals. The social side of TAP is a big part of what makes the week so memorable, and it’s one of the reasons students return year after year.

 

Throughout the week, students bond over creative challenges, shared laughter, and moments that build lasting friendships and team spirit. Between rehearsals, coachings, and performances, the festival atmosphere is filled with energy, joy, and community.

 

Festival Traditions Include:

• Daily riddles, puzzles, and team-building games that build camaraderie and laughter.

• Pizza party and ice cream social midweek celebration.

• Annual Photo Challenge with a surprise theme, judged by outside guests, and results announced at the final concert - a festival favorite that students anticipate all year.​
