Location:  CSI 300 N Broadway, beautiful indoor and outdoor grounds!

Days, Hours and Cost: Monday through Thursday, 10:00am to 3:00 pm. $395 per week.

Program: Each day begins in rotating small groups exploring a variety of music and arts classes and ends with a collaborative music activity.

Teaching Philosophy:  Sessions are led by professional staff members emphasizing the fun in learning and the value of creative arts. Rivertown Music strongly believes that music teaches more than just rhythms and notes; it teaches critical thinking skills and builds on experiences that last a lifetime. A summer camp in a relaxed atmosphere is a perfect setting for the multi-sensory approach to learning.

The CSI grounds at 300 North Broadway offers a beautiful setting,  great outdoor play space, shady grounds and large indoor classrooms for instruction and a large community room for performance. We have very talented instructors, and modeled the camp on our years of experience working at the exceptional Summer Music Camp at Hoff Barthelson School of Music in Scarsdale, NY.

Four Weeks:  Each week will have different curriculum and musical focus. Join for one week or all four! Every week of the camp can stand alone; the process of development and enrichment will be emphasized over the product.

Musical genres that students will be exposed to include classical to pop music, Broadway, traditional, and jazz. Campers will be split into groups of age/experience and be given private or group instruction on piano, voice, guitar, violin, strings and more. 

The theatre curriculum explores creation of original pieces through exciting activities such as pantomime and improvisation as well as Shakespeare, skits, short scenes and monologues, depending on the student’s age and experience.

The camp will be driven by student’s inquiry into their areas of interest which will inform our instruction.

Thank you, parents, for your feedback!

Our son has been attending Rivertown Music and Arts Camp for the last two years, beginning at age 4. We can unequivocally say it is the highlight of his summer. His days at camp have exposed him to numerous creative and engaging activities. He’s thrived in improv performances, in learning music, and in fun outdoor games and adventures. He has come home from camp every day bubbling with excitement, and we have loved that camp has allowed him to express himself freely and receive guidance from the wonderful directors, teachers and counselors. We are looking forward to another summer at Rivertown. Thanks for creating such an immersive and welcoming camp!

Last summer we wanted our daughter to be able to spend her summer doing her most favorite thing…. Performing and enjoying music/theatre. We chose Rivertown and couldn’t have been more thrilled! She had the most fantastic summer and everyday experienced the joy of the arts. Summer is nearly upon us again thankfully, as she has been asking frequently when can camp begin. The counselors were so enthusiastic and Chris and Jill have truly created something very special for everyone who has the opportunity to experience summer camp at Rivertown.

Rivertown Music & Arts camp is awesome!  That’s what my girls say year after year!  They’ve been attending the camp for the past 3 years — and LOVE it!  There is something for everyone — including cool crafts, fun theater games, yoga, music — all in a beautiful environment (with indoor and outdoor space) and terrific counselors.  See you this summer!
