A BODY OF WATER

One morning a man and a woman wake up together with no memory of who they are or where they are. A man and a woman wake up together one morning with no memory of who they are or where they are. It’s morning. A man and a woman wake up together with no memory of who they are or where they are. And who, they wonder, is the other woman in the house with them? Is she their daughter? Is she their caregiver? Is she their lawyer? And can they believe the stories she tells them? And does it matter that the stories she tells them change from day to day if the couple can’t remember the story from the day before? What is real? How can we be sure?

Summer Art Camp 2021
NOTICE
Our In-Person Summer Art Camp has filled up quickly. Currently, we only have 2 openings left for children ages 11, 12 & 13. Since there is a good chance that CDC Guidelines may change before the start of Summer, we'd then be able to accept more children if that were to happen. With that in mind, we are keeping our registration open but will be putting all those registrations received on a waiting list. No charges will be made unless your child has been accepted. Should additional spots open up, we will accept those children on the waiting list in the order we receive them. Please note that we still have spaces available for children of all ages into our virtual camp program.
ABOUT CAMP
Last year we learned a lot last year about how to keep our campers and staff safe and have brought all those guidelines and equipment back this year as well as all the fun and excitement. Our in-person campers will still get top level instruction in a wide variety of artistic disciplines like Dance, Theater, Singing, Crafts, Art and Ceramics plus plenty of Outdoor Games and Activities while our virtual campers will get more specific instruction in the performing or visual arts from well qualified teaching artists who know how to bring out the fun and creativity in your child. Due to the pandemic, we will still be limiting the number of in-person campers this year and have again streamlined our camp offerings. We also made improvements to our virtual camp with dedicated instructors and new lessons for those who want to their campers to participate remotely.
