for Ages 5-10 (children must be 5 by July 1, 2023)
Hannah Gieseke, Director
No previous experience necessary! Enter a world of fun as grand and creative as your child’s imagination!
Join our specially selected instructors as they embark on a journey filled with music, art, and movement. Sessions are based on a specific theme that unlocks your child’s imagination, and each week concludes with a performance that brings all of the learned elements together. Core instructors include specialists in music, creative movement, and visual arts, who are joined by guest performing artists from Hochstein’s talented faculty and the Rochester community.
Campers attend daily music, art, and movement classes—all designed around a general theme. A short daily rehearsal brings the groups together to prepare for a concluding performance each Friday. Mid-morning and mid-afternoon snacks (individually packaged) are provided and full-day campers must bring their own bag lunch.
A limited number of full scholarships are available for those who qualify, based on income. Please call 585.454.4596 for more information.
