2013 Dates: July 8 - 19

Registration begins: April 30Hillsboro Arts Summer

Hillsboro Arts Summer (HAS) is a performing arts and music day camp for 6th grade through high school students. HAS offers classes in instrumental music, jazz studies, drama, film/TV production, dance, guitar and ceramics and pottery. There are also a number of electives to choose from (see below). This is a unique experience for youth to work with professional artists, musicians, and seasoned educators to develop their talents and abilities.

 

HAS is fun, relevant and innovative while accessible to all skill levels. They will learn songs, dance routines, and a theater production in preparation for an end-of-camp live performance for family, friends and the public to be held at Century High School on Thursday, July 18th. We are continuing to partner with Stages Performing Arts Youth Academy and Element Dance Studio to bring dance and drama to our arts program.

Students sign up for one major and two electives at registration. Students need to bring their own guitar if that is what they play. All course offerings are dependent upon enrollment. Students may register for both the Hillsboro Rock Camp and Hillsboro Arts Summer Camp at a reduced fee.
