HISTORY
Performing arts history in Temple City
Temple City's performing tradition is older than the city itself. The Camellia Festival began in 1944, when the Women's Club held a contest to choose the community's flower, and by 1946 the first parade rolled down Las Tunas Drive. It is still the city's heartbeat every spring — a parade welcoming thousands of children, first-grade royalty crowned each year, and a three-day carnival with live entertainment nightly. Our own hip hop teams have danced in it.

Free trial policy
Free trials are limited to one (1) free group class and one (1) free private lesson per student, across all programs, and are subject to availability. Free trial private music lessons — including voice — require a deposit of 50% of the first-lesson rate at the time of booking. After the trial lesson is attended, the deposit is either refunded or applied toward enrollment. If the student does not show up for the scheduled trial, or cancels with less than 24 hours' notice, the deposit is forfeited. The deposit requirement applies to music and voice private lessons only; acting and dance offer free group class trials instead, and private lessons in those programs are generally reserved for advanced students. Additional restrictions may apply — contact the PopRock front desk for details. This offer may be rescinded at any time.
