Hope you are well, wishing you a merry Christmas, happy Hanukkah, and a beautiful new year!
I want to also say thank you to every single person in our community - our students, parents, school administrators and teachers, our faculty, and our hosts during the summer - for your support, feedback, and enthusiasm for all we did this past year in Rock Camp, Diving Into Art, Dance Intensive, Explore Ceramics, Jazz Workshop, and Theater Workshop. The community we have created over the years is very special.
That's a Wrap, Summer 2023
Yesterday was the last day of our summer camps and classes for students of all ages, including our adult classes, in music, art, ceramics, theater, and dance. So proud of how every single student explored their chosen art form in such a deep, thoughtful, and collaborative way. Everyone worked together as a team to reach a new level and it was a whole lot of fun along the way! On behalf of all of the teachers of Rock Camp, Diving into Art, Explore Ceramics, Dance Intensive, Theater Workshop, and Jazz Workshop in Bridgehampton, New York City, and Lebanon, NJ - thank you!
An Inner Confidence Rises Up, Music, Art, Dance, Theater Camp in the Hamptons
Through the years I have noticed an inner confidence emerge from students in our music, art, dance, theater camp in the Hamptons and New Jersey. Something happens when someone throws himself or herself into something and creates something that they never thought was possible.
When students arrive at our music camp, our art camp, our theater camp, and our dance camp in the Hamptons and New Jersey, there is a mix of excitement and maybe a bit of nervous energy. It’s amazing to see how this feeling transforms into a certain confidence that comes through performance and sharing your talents with your peers, family, and the public. It’s not showy…it’s a kind of quiet, inner confidence that radiates outward that’s built on accomplishments that they have seen through on their own with their fellow musicians, dancers, artists, and actors.
