RiverStars Performing Arts is a program of IVCDO that offers free dance and theatre classes to 6-18-year-olds, whether they are homeschooled or go to private or public school. Students cultivate performance skills while building self-esteem, discipline, focus, risk taking and collaboration skills. Young artists write or choreograph original content about issues relevant to our rural community. In the Spring, students perform flash mobs at the Cave Junction Farmer’s Market.

Riverstars also offers all-ages intergenerational community classes to help let performance artists of all ages shine.
