Music, Art, Drama

This year, our Preschool Creative Arts Camp will explore the beloved musical tale Peter and the Wolf by Sergei Prokofiev. In this charming story, a clever boy outwits a dangerous wolf, while each character is brought to life by a different instrument of the orchestra.

Throughout the week, children will experience the story through music, singing, movement, dancing, art, and drama — with a little science and literature woven in. Campers will discover how instruments tell a story, create hands-on art inspired by the characters, and bring the tale to life through imaginative play. Your child will receive plenty of individual attention, and each day will be filled with creativity, learning, and fun!

Join us on Friday the 17th at 2:30 PM for our final program! Children’s artwork will be on exhibit, and families will enjoy a dramatic retelling of the story.

Designed for young pianists who have completed Level 1 or higher, our week-long Piano Camp helps students grow in skill, confidence, and creativity—all in a fun and supportive environment.

Throughout the week, students will expand their musical expression and strengthen their performance skills through engaging, hands-on learning. Learning alongside like-minded young musicians builds motivation and accelerates progress.

What Students Will Experience:

  • Daily group lessons focused on technique and musicianship

  • Interactive theory games that make learning fun

  • Masterclass-style sessions with personalized feedback

  • Practice challenges to build consistency and celebrate progress

  • Performance opportunities to boost confidence

Whether preparing for recitals, auditions, or simply looking to grow as a musician, this camp provides the perfect balance of structure and creativity to help young pianists thrive.

Give your child the opportunity to take their piano playing to new heights!

Rising 2nd grade through 8th grade students will be divided into 2 groups: Elementary and Middle School. Participants must have a minimum of two years of private lessons.
