and Let's Go!

Piano Camps

June 12th-16th or 26th-30th
9 a.m. - noon

This is the perfect camp for curious musicians! We'll launch into learning everything about piano with instructor Janessa Cardillo. Topics will include piano geography (learning the names of the keys on the keyboard), rhythm and beat, finger numbers, and note reading. At the end of the week, we will hold a short recital for families and friends to show off your camper's newfound skills!

Beginning pianists, ages 5-7 and 8-10

Musical Escape Room

July 10th-14th
9 a.m. - noon

This camp is sure to be a week of fun, challenge, and friendship as experienced musicians work together to solve puzzles, find clues, and unlock prizes. Campers should have some knowledge of basic note reading, though concepts needed to solve puzzles will be covered at the beginning of each day. Instructors will be on hand to provide hints and point campers in the right direction as needed.

Ages 8-12

Songwriting Camp

June 12th-16th
1 - 4 p.m.

If you play an instrument (yes, that includes your own voice!), have always wanted to write your own music, but don't know where to start, this is the camp for you! Instructor Nate Bradley will offer songwriting prompts and help you refine your ideas into a finished product. One or more of the songs written this week will be learned and polished during the Rock Band camp, then recorded during the Recording camp later this summer!

Musicians ages 12-18

Rock Band Camp

June 26th-30th
1 - 4 p.m.

If you're tired of jamming out on your guitar in the comfort of your own home and would like to collaborate with some other musicians, this is the camp for you! This week, we will work with a variety of gigging musicians to learn and polish one or more of the songs that were written at the songwriting camp earlier this summer, in order to prepare to record at the recording camp later this summer. The week will end with a short performance at the Big Bang Dueling Piano Bar in the Flats!

Musicians ages 12-18

(Please be sure to specify during registration which instrument you play; we will need to coordinate registration to ensure we have appropriate instrumentation.)

Recording 101 Camp

July 10th-14th
1 - 4 p.m.

Ready to take your ideas and songs to the next level? Instructor Zach Meadows will introduce you to all the tech-y stuff you need to know to make a quality recording of your instrument or band. We'll learn about micing techniques, signal flow, mixing and mastering, and more! At the conclusion of camp, you will have a recording of one or more of the songs that were written at the Songwriting camp and learned at the Rock Band camp earlier this summer!

Musicians ages 12-18

Musical Theater Camp

July 24th-28th

If Anastasia, Addams Family, Newsies, and Pinnochio are your jam, this is the camp for you! Join instructors Janessa Cardillo and Paige Bradford to polish your vocal skills, monologue delivery, and song choice to level up your next audition. No prior experience required!
