KWC Performing Arts

PLOT TWIST: Your kid could be *on stage* instead of in the seats during 'Matilda'.

Our July International Camp is more than just another boring summer gig. It's like summer stock with a dash of shenanigans:

· Actual stage time (no more living room performances!)
· Global awareness (because cultured kids are cool)
· Leadership skills (for their future TED talks)
· Classic camp fun (friendships, games, and zero screen time)

From stage-shy to spotlight-ready, ages 6-18. JUL 14-AUG 4 - 3 weeks of controlled chaos. Don't let your kid miss the revolution!

OKAY. Who spilled the 80s all over our J-PAC campers? Today’s music video shoot might just break the retro scale in all its insane neon glory. Can’t share too much yet, but get ready for a treat soon!

Nothing beats a day spent in pajamas, especially when it’s a Penguin Pajama Party at camp! 🐧✨Today was all about comfy pjs, great stories, and an indoor picnic with our fave people!

Sky Colors Wednesday has us twirling towards the weekend!🌈🌀Today’s vibe? Ribbon wands and big smiles in Miss Devyn's dance class!

Today's forecast at mini-camp: 100% chance of fluff and fabulous! Tutus & Feathers Tuesday took over, and our campers did indeed strut their stuff. Can every day be this adorable and uplifting? Why, yes - YES IT CAN. 😄

Having your own spot in the dressing room is the absolute best. Just ask Langston. 😎
