Summer Programs

There are countless summer festivals, camps and intensive study programs for young musicians and dancers. Finding these programs, however, can be quite difficult. Harder still, is finding one that is right for you or your child. The Preparatory's special offerings over the summer months include dance programs for students of all ages and ability levels and day camps for developing string and voice students. These are in addition to our regular summer course offerings.

Since 'summer camp' is a right of passage for many children in America, we offer the following list of links to music and dance programs from around the world as a resource. The list includes programs for students of all ages and ability levels and the style of these programs varies greatly - from day camps to international music festivals.

Only programs with active web-sites are included here, if any of these links do not work, or if you are aware of other programs that you would like to see included, please email the student affairs coordinator at gavinf@peabody.jhu.edu. Remember, we offer this information only as a resource; a program's inclusion on this list is not an endorsement from the Preparatory.
