Clarion University will host the Young Americans performing arts summer camp held from Tuesday, June 21 through Friday, June 24 at the Clarion University. This summer day camp is a four-day experience that ends with a show at 7 p.m. on Friday, June 24.
The Young Americans have a total of 20 scholarships available to award to any student third grade through 12th grade as well as current Clarion University students. This is a great opportunity to have fun while getting an education in the world of arts.
Students will spend the week learning a one-hour show. They will take master classes in voice, dance, acting, and creative writing in preparation. Students will be encouraged to step out of their comfort zone and explore all aspects of the arts in a safe and supported environment.
The Young American’s are also looking for homestay families for their cast members during their stay in Clarion. Please consider housing two or more if you are able.
Transportation to and from camp along with meals and a place to sleep is all that is required.
Please contact Barb Funk at ebjefunk@gmail.com for more information about housing two or more of The Young Americans for the week or if you have any general questions concerning the camp.
Cost of tickets at the door is $12 for adults and $10 for seniors and children. The show is open to the public.
To apply for the scholarship, email Eric Funk at efunk@youngamericans.org. They will be granted on a first-come, first-serve basis.
