Lovewell Institute has spent the last twenty-five years developing and refining a unique arts education curriculum into an effective professional training methodology.
The main ingredient that sets the Lovewell Method apart from all other interdisciplinary arts and theatre programs. “Within me there is boundless creative power.”

I am currently a Masters candidate in Educational theatre at New York University. Lovewell is most of the reason I chose to attend this program, and not just because the programs are similar in philosophies. Lovewell has built up my learning and social skills. My first experience with the process was as a student at the age of 16. My first session opened up my eyes to see my potential in this world, both as an educator and an artist.

My love for the arts led me to the Lovewell Institute for the Creative Arts, a program where students collaborate to create, write, and perform a full-scale original musical in just a three week period. Participating in this program was not only the ultimate creative experience, but it was an incredible life experience in general. Lovewell is a supreme test on an individual’s creativity, faith, and ability to work with others, and proof that if you truly set your mind on achieving something, everything is possible.

Lovewell in a dictionary would be described as a summer workshop where students and staff come together to conceive, write, and perform an original mew musical. However Lovewell is so much more than that. The process shows the students the power of creativity. It forms special friendships that last a lifetime. Lastly, it empowers students to strive for their goals and be the best version of them they can be.”

No other program gives a child the self confidence to do whatever it is they want to do. They have been accepted just as they are and nurtured to express themselves in their own unique way. They have experienced that their voice will be listened to without judgment and that in cooperation with others, they can accomplish anything they choose.

Lovewell exposed my daughter to other passionate and creative teens who embraced and welcomed her. Unlike others who had been with the program for years, it seemed like she had been as well. The affirmations, the process, was all inspiring, exhausting and more. Whether or not juniors and teens even consider performance arts in their future or not, the Lovewell experience helps add to a great foundation for high school, college and beyond.

My Lovewell story began in the summer of 2001 as a student. Lovewell opened my eyes to a world of creativity that I had never known. It allowed me to explore the world around me as well the grounds for expressing myself, as I was. When I was a student, Lovewell gave me a voice and when I graduated from High School I continued to use that voice as an intern and then later as a staff member.

I first became a student at Lovewell in 2005. Since then I’ve been a student and musical director for over a dozen Lovewell productions. The experience is nothing short of miraculous and downright incredible. It’s an environment full of smart, creative, and loving people all working towards a common goal.
