Westerhoff/RFA Music Camp

Westerhoff/RFA Music Camp 2018
Mon – Fri, August 6-10, 2018, 9 AM – 3 PM, at the RFA Lakeside Theater and other downtown locations

Make great music and great friends at the Westerhoff-RFA Music Camp this summer!

This week-long camp offers campers the chance to learn from music teachers who have a proven ability to work with youth. Activities alternate between individual instruction, practice, and performance to group lessons, music-making and fun musicianship classes. Campers learn to play music with others, write music and advance their individual skills. Each day will include group singing and a noontime outdoor recreational period.  On Friday, campers will showcase all that they have learned in a performance for family and friends.
