About this Event
Camp Description
Have a tiny dancer who would like to explore choreographing with new friends? If so, we invite them to our week-long summer camp structured for those ages 11-17 to join in storytelling, learn about collective movement, dance history, and collaboration in a program led by Motion Pacific Dance instructors Gabi Piazza and Kali Lucas. Together, the group will create “moving murals” through choreography games and creative prompts. The camp will culminate in a showing for families to see what the students have created at the end of the week.
This camp runs from 9 am to 1 pm. The MAH will also be offering additional child care at an extra cost from 1 pm to 3 pm for those interested in staying past 1 pm. We encourage you to sign up before space runs out! Space is limited to 20 campers; snacks and materials are included with registration.
If you have any questions, you can contact us at [email protected].
