SUMMER CAMPS & CLASSES
SUMMER FUN JUNIOR SINGING CAMP
July 27 - July 31
9:00a - 12:00p
Allen Recital Hall
Cost: $140
Join us for a week of singing adventures! This introductory-level, outdoor-inspired singing camp invites beginner singers on an adventure filled with laughter, listening, creativity, and discovery, building singing confidence along the way.
The Summer Fun Junior Singing Camp is structured to support three learning objectives: listening and exploring, musicianship, and song study. Campers will focus on creative active listening and vocal exploration. Sound walks and campfire sound activities build on these foundational skills. They'll delve into singing simple outdoor-themed camp melodies and age-appropriate songs while exploring rhythm and beat with music and singing activities. Campers will discover a range of sounds like rhythmic chants, folk songs, camp songs, and first-performance songs.
Perfect for singers ages 5-7, this half-day camp provides the space for students to express themselves, build confidence, and connect with others through music with a performance on the last day of the camp!
