Summer Arts Camp for Youth

WHAT IS IT?

A day camp for youth entering the 6th through 12th grades that allows participants to explore the performance and visual arts—theater, music, movement/dance, painting, drawing, and photography.

All campers will choose 2-3 arts that they’d like to learn more about and/or that they are already familiar with.  Participants will be coached by professional and semi-professional artists from the Tacoma community.

This year’s theme is “Imagine God.”  Campers will explore the beauty of life and faith expressed through art.  All youth are welcome to participate, no matter what your denomination or faith beliefs.
