Spend your summer in PAW’s MUSICAL THEATER Camp, GUITAR Camp, PHOTOGRAPHY Camp, LITTLE STARS Camp or SPORTS Camp! Each PAW camp is lead by nurturing, skilled instructors who bring out the best in our campers and make each summer a lasting memory. Every camp ends with a special activity.

In PAW’s MUSICAL THEATER CAMP, (ages 5 – 14) shine on stage performing beloved children’s shows. First timers to advanced performers will discover the joys of acting, improv, voice & speech, dance, stage presence and much more!

Join PAW’s LIVE & UNPLUGGED GUITAR CAMP, (ages 7 – 14) play the acoustic guitar and be a real guitar hero. Learn chords, tabs, picking, strumming and music theory while playing rock, pop & classical guitar. Working in concert with PAW’s Theater Camp, you will showcase your original songs as well as provide underscoring for a live performance.

Fun is the name of the game at PAW’s LITTLE STARS Camp, a half day program specially designed for children ages 3-5. Featured activities include Dramatic Play, Music, Dance, Singing, Fairytale Theater and much More! As our campers enjoy a summer of new discoveries and friendships, they will also be achieving significant milestones in their education and development.

In SNAP PHOTOGRAPHY CAMP, kids will master their social media world through digital photography. Kids learn fundamentals such as composition, camera settings, headshots, portraits and live action shots. Students will select photos from their collected works which will be included in a portfolio to enjoy for years to come.

At PAW’s SPORTS CAMP, (ages 8 – 14) why stick to one sport when you can play them all? You will discover the joy of sports by focusing on a new sport each day. Our Sports-of-the-day approach allows kids to learn the rules, techniques and drills for that day’s sport in the mornings and apply what they’ve learned in an afternoon scrimmage. Sports include: Soccer, Basketball, Flag Football, Track & Field and The iFit Olympics.

Doors open at 7:30am, program hours are 8:30am to 3:00pm with extended play until 5:00pm (where available). Please check our website, www.performingartsworkshops.com, for camp locations and availability.
