This summer the St. Louis Artists Guild is offering a variety of weekly camps for young artists! Our camps allow students to develop their abilities and imagination as they push themselves beyond what they knew they were capable of achieving! Camp STLAG Summer 2023 will allow our campers to explore new mediums and find their creativity in fast-paced, 5-day sessions. STLAG Summer Camps take place in person and meet on-site at the STLAG gallery/studio in downtown Clayton. Scholarships are available!

Lifelight Youth Theatre offers one-week Broadway Theatre Performance Summer Camps for elementary, middle, and high school age groups. Camps culminate in a fully staged performance of a Broadway musical. Campers will spend their days rehearsing the music, choreography, and staging for their performance. When not rehearsing, they will spend time working on the technical elements of the show, playing acting games with teachers, and participating in team-building activities. In each week-long Broadway Performance Summer Camp students will be instructed in stage presence, characterization, improv, dance, choreography, proper vocal technique and projection, learning musical numbers, building the set & props, creating believable characters, establishing objectives and obstacles, and dissecting scenes by being in workshop sessions and going through the rehearsal/performance process.
