Fire up our creativity as participants write and record songs. Students will engage in a variety of activities such as theater games, word and picture collaging, instrument making, listening sessions, journaling and outdoor adventures to find inspiration. There will also be opportunities for those who are interested in sound engineering to learn more about the use of microphones and basic recording gear. All work will culminate with a full length CD and an informal CD release celebration. Limited to ten participants between the ages of 7-13 although this is flexible!

My kids, who were initially both reluctant participants, absolutely LOVED the Songwriter Camp. I am so impressed with the creativity you inspired in them, how you showed them that they can take everyday events and turn them into songs, and how songwriting is an organic process. They also loved the silly fun elements like swimming and observing humans in their natural habitats. ~ Methow Valley parent
