Summer in the Arts

Summer at CEA continues Conchita's philosophy of providing flexible options for integrating your child's summer with creativity, adventure, and intellectual and artistic growth. Students have the option of participating in three- or six-week programs through a variety of experiences. See Programs and details.

Congratulations to our Guitar teacher, Rey Guerra,
who has been nominated for a 2014 Latin Grammy!

The nomination is for Best Instrumental Album: “Dances from The New World” by Paquito de Rivera and Sergio & Odair Assad, which features Rey Guerra's song, "Trialodo".

We are so proud of the wonderful teachers we have at the Conchita Espinosa Conservatory of the Arts!

1st Grade Renaissance

Ms. Martinez' first grade class has been studying the Renaissance and the art from that period, especially Da Vinci's Mona Lisa and Botticelli's La Primavera. Here is a video of the students describing the work and showing their own version of the famous painting!

On Monday February 24 we will celebrate Conchita Day at Conchita Espinosa Academy.

This Sunday, February 23 will be the anniversary of Conchita's birthday, which is 100 this year. In anticipation of the Conchita Day celebrations, each day this week will be dedicated to celebrating a part of her legacy and our legacy as a school and conservatory. One of the most important parts of her legacy is the beautiful school anthem.

Es nuestro himno un mensaje de paz,
De esperanza y de felicidad,
Que al entonarlo nos da libertad
Para pensar, para creer y realizar.
Que al entonarlo nos da libertad
Para pensar, para creer y realizar.

Cantemos todos: ¡todos unidos!
Cogidos de la mano fuertemente.
Juremos todos: ¡todos juremos!
Querernos y ayudarnos mutuamente.

Cantemos todos, todos unidos,
Mirando hacia un futuro luminoso,
Lleno de amor, de comprensión y libertad,
Llenos de amor, de comprensión y libertad.

Es nuestro himno un mensaje de paz,
De esperanza y de felicidad,
Que al entonarlo nos da libertad
Para pensar, para creer y realizar.
