Summer Camps
Summer camps filled with creativity, connection, and performance
Our award-winning summer camps are designed for kids to explore new creative outlets while having a blast. With a mix of singing, dancing, acting, and art, each week introduces a fresh theme to inspire creativity and keep things engaging. We focus on creating a welcoming environment where kids can try new things, collaborate with others, and enjoy the creative process. The week wraps up with a fun performance for friends and family that highlights the kids' efforts and celebrates their accomplishments.

Music is a core part of my daughter's resilience and spark. Privately, she makes music bounding around the house and is ALWAYS in song.
Last summer, Mr. D's Music Club gave her a community of creatives to immerse herself in, and a stage for performance—allowing her to step into her light in a fuller way.
Typically, she is on the quiet side when singing, so it was magical to watch her transform into her BOLD beYOUtiful self with confidence, presence, and aliveness.
