Music, Arts and Technology Camp
Camp Dates: July 28- August 1, 2008
About the program Music,
Arts and Technology Campoffers a series of continuing
daily arts related classes for students, teachers, and
community members of all ages and ability levels. A wide
variety of classes include entry level, how-to classes
such as beginning violin, up through advanced level
classes such as Symphony Orchestra and Opera. Subjects
include music, theater, dance, art, technology, and more.
Over 100 classes are held each day. There are 7 periods a
day (that continue daily), with an average of 15
different class choices per hour, totaling 500 sessions
for the week for students ranging from babies through
adults. 250 or more students and community members
participate in the program.
Over 30 student music groups perform in a total of six
concerts at the end of the program week for the Evanston
community, with an audience of approximately 400-500. In
addition, Camp staff members present a professional
concert during the week for camp participants and the
community.
The Camp staff consists of 31 professional
teachers/performers from all around the US. The Camp
program is approved by the Wyoming Professional Teaching
Standards Board, thus local teachers can take classes and
qualify for workshop credit to apply towards
re-certification. Camp also includes fun activities in
the evenings that allow the teaching staff, camp
participants, and the community to bond. Student tuition
is kept low and financial aid is available, so no one is
excluded because of inability to pay.
The Camp has been highly successful for the past decade,
offering the widest variety of classes in the arts, while
still offering very specialized courses for those
seriously pursuing a music education. The Camp draws
students from out of the region. A lodging/meal plan is
offered through the camp in conjunction with local
hotels.
