Is your child creative, musical, and/or a drama queen?   If you’re looking for a super summer camp program, MusicMakers has the answer.  For 8 successful years, The MusicMakers Academy has provided week-long, “camp” programs in music, instruments, singing, drama, and arts/crafts for ages 5 to 14, with lots of activities and instruction in both disciplines.

“Music and Drama Camps provide your child with the chance to develop character, learn valuable life skills, make new friends, and discover new interests.  Finding the right Music Camps for your child is as important as any other part of their education and development as an individual”, says Paula Penna, Director and Owner of The MusicMakers Academy.

What makes this camp any different from other camps?  According to returning MusicMakers mother, Pat from Glastonbury, “There is heart in this camp, heart in MusicMakers.  While highly professional, we all feel very at home and at ease here—and that piece of mind is priceless for any parent.”

Activities and instruction include:  learning and performing a play, music instrument instruction, singing instruction, arts and crafts such as building instruments, basics of music reading, writing songs, and ensemble activities.  When the weather is nice, participants may take snack on the great lawn and play under the sprinklers, too.  “We are always looking out for the best interest of our students.  Our camps are just the right combination of structure and flexibility, so the participants get a great education while having stress-free-fun and getting to be a “kid”!”, says Penna, who herself holds both a masters degree and bachelors degree in music education, and has been teaching for 20 years.

Each week is structured around a popular theme appropriate and engaging for the age group.  Penna is the mother of two children, ages 8...
