Exciting New Year Round Programs
for Kids of all ages !
Manotick Arts Camps - Summer Performance Arts Programs
Founded in 2000, the Manotick Arts Camp has provided summer performance arts programs to youth in Manotick and the surrounding area. Kids ages 10-16 have benefited from our programs designed to encourage creativity, and instill confidence. All arts areas of drama, dance, visual art, instrumental and vocal music are taught by professional artists with years of pedagogical experience. The Manotick Arts Camp offers something for all. Whether you are trying this out for the first time or whether you want to improve your skills, our team of teachers and counselors are dedicated to making our programs a great experience for you.
The goal of the summer program is to showcase the creativity of our students in a performance that is held at the end of the two-week day camp. As well as learning new skills and techniques in all areas of the arts, MAC students will enjoy the mentorship of counselors and teachers who foster leadership and team building skills Many of our students return every summer and it is always a great honor to see them again and catch up on what they have been doing over the past year. A few of our students have been with us for 12 years and are now pursuing various arts related studies at university!
The Manotick Arts Camp is located in the beautiful historical setting of the village of Manotick close to Dickinson Square. Each day we actually walk past the old gristmill on our way to Chris Mullen Field. We welcome all students 10-16. Whether you are a closet, budding or seasoned young artist, we encourage you to try out our 2012 programs. You will not regret it!
NEW!!! Workshops on Professional Development Days
We now offer Music, Drama and Visual Art workshops on Professional Development days. Each PD day will be themed and all the day's activities will lead to a short performance that will be shot in video at the end of the day.
Music for Wee Ones
The Music for Wee Ones program was founded in 2007. Music for Wee ones is an excellent weekly music class for children aged 3-6. Children learn the basic elements of music while learning to play in ensemble and having a great time! Come join the band! This is a great intro to music for young children.
