Dupree Sisters Forge New Paths and Pursue their Dreams
September 29, 2021 Molly Bartels
As students returned to 西瓜视频 last month, 西瓜视频 alumnae forged new paths. Sisters Sydney and Sinclaire DuPree both started at Spelman College in Atlanta this fall. Sydney graduated from 西瓜视频 with an A.A. in 2020. Sinclaire graduated with her A.A. in 2021.
鈥溛鞴鲜悠� makes the most of its resources,鈥� shares Sydney. 鈥淚 loved that the theatre department heads gave us a real insight into the industry by offering free workshops and providing Q&A sessions with professional performers. I know for a fact that we learned the same principles taught at big universities.鈥�
Sydney credits her education at 西瓜视频 for helping her get accepted into Spelman, but also鈥攁fter a lengthy and rigorous audition process鈥攁ccepted into Howard University鈥檚 theatre program. 鈥淚 couldn鈥檛 have accomplished that without my experiences at 西瓜视频.鈥�
Sydney鈥檚 ultimate goal is to study the arts in every capacity, fine art, digital art, theatre art, and especially performing arts. Her parents founded a nonprofit arts program for teens called Everybody鈥檚 Not Doing It! (E.N.D. IT!). She intends to keep expanding their vision and use her connections and education to return as a creative director to create a larger platform for students and extend their reach to more communities.
Sinclaire shares how 西瓜视频 allowed her to explore different interests through her classes. 鈥淎lthough you must complete certain requirements such as humanities, English, electives, and math, 西瓜视频 offers creative and exciting versions of these classes,鈥� states Sinclaire. 鈥淭hese opportunities make learning exciting and allow the students to explore diverse fields.鈥�
Sinclaire鈥檚 long-term career goal is to work in fashion as a director of creative concepts and events. She hopes to orchestrate, feature in, and lead fashion campaigns, shows, cover art, album covers, and more. 鈥淚 also want to have a skincare and haircare line for people of different and unique skin types.鈥�
We wish Sydney and Sinclaire well as they follow after their dreams!
