Summer Camp

Summer camp at Mr. D's Music Club is all about music, art, dance, creativity, fun, and friends. Not to mention singing, dancing, acting, laughing, trying new things, performing, confidence-building, and all-around silliness. We pride ourselves in offering 8 - 13-year-old* children a stellar camp experience in the performing arts where every child shines.

CREATIVE SPACES: Keeping Kids Inspired

The Creative Spaces is an arts enrichment program for 8 - 12 year old kids. The Creative Spaces is an exploration of the arts, so kids can discover their passions, learn techniques, foster a love for creativity and build an artistic foundation to further their arts education in the areas they find inspiration. The Creative Spaces is a 12-week program (in-person) during the Fall and Spring semesters. Each Creative Space has an art emphasis that the kids will do each week, culminating in a performance for families on the last day of class. In addition to the art emphasis, students will also explore various art forms with a specific focus each week. Twice during the program, we invite professional guest artists to share their art form and passion for the arts.
