Summer Camps 2026
REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN
Join us for an exciting summer of dance, creativity and fun!
Our Summer Camps offer a unique blend of movement and artistic exploration for children ages 4–11. Guided by our experienced instructors, campers will move through a joyful and imaginative week of dance, art, theatre, and singing, discovering the magic within themselves and the world around them. Campers will be divided into two groups according to age. We will use both our beautiful indoor and outdoor spaces throughout the day.

Camp readiness guidelines
Children will be encouraged to explore new ways of moving, creating and exploring through the arts. To do this all must feel safe and welcome to express themselves in their own unique ways and be free to take risks in a trusting atmosphere.
To encourage a safe and welcoming place for all, please talk with your child prior to coming to camp to ensure they are:
- comfortable taking direction and following direction from staff
- staying with their group
- being comfortable in both large and smaller groups of children they may not know and being able to get along with them.
- understand the importance of snacks, lunch and water and be able to manage them on their own with supervision of a counselor
- being able to dress themselves, knowing and asking when to use the washroom
- be able to apply sunscreen or be able to ask a counselor for help
- be able to keep track of their belongings with the help of counselors
We hope to make camp a positive experience for all children and will work with you to help your child transition to camp. Please share any concerns you may have so that we can help your child thrive at camp. If we have exhausted all means to ensure their success at camp, we reserve the right to refund the remaining fee and ask that they return in another session when they are more prepared for a camp experience.
Cancellation and Refund Policy
In the event of illness or other unforeseen circumstances, any changes to and/or cancellation of your child’s registration must be done in writing no later than three weeks prior to the start of camp in order to receive a full refund less an administration fee of $50. Refunds requested with less than 3 weeks before the first day of camp will be subject to a $75 administration fee. If your child becomes ill before camp starts and is unable to attend, the administration fee of $75 will be waived with a doctor’s note. Once camp has started, days missed for any reason cannot be refunded or made up.
