About Us
Wolfpack Performing Arts is comprised of the music, dance, and theater programs at Cosumnes Oaks High School and Elizabeth Pinkerton Middle School. We are located in Elk Grove, CA just south of Sacramento. 2017 marks WPA’s 9th season. We are an award winning program, and our students have gone on to pursue performance careers all over the country.
Our Vision Statement
Wolfpack Performing Arts (WPA) is designed to provide students who have a strong desire and motivation in the arts with concentrated and focused study in a variety of arts disciplines. WPA provides an atmosphere that fosters interdisciplinary connections found among all areas of artistic expression. Our students share experiences that recognize and value cultural diversity of artistic expression, and that nurture community within the arts.
