Play-In-A-Week Camp

Can you make a play in a week? You will get the chance to do this at the McKinney Center THIS SUMMER!
Starting from scratch, students will work alongside professional theatre makers to create an original performance in just one week. You will develop a range of performance skills and learn technical theatre skills working alongside practicing artists. You will also make new friends and have a lot of fun in the process.
There is even a free lunch club from Noon - 12:30, where you can hang-out and have lunch with directors, designers, choreographers, poets, and musicians.
Spots for, Play-In-A-Week, are limited to 16 students, and is expected to fill up quickly. Register early to avoid disappointment.

Pottery Studio 202
with Kara Bledsoe

Grades: 7-12
Class Limit: 10 students
In this fun and messy class, students will learn hand-building techniques and the use of the potter’s wheel. Students will also experience the delight of creating with their own hands and imagination in clay. Our goal is for each student to produce five projects that will go home with them to enjoy or give as gifts.
Returning students are welcome! Every summer new projects will be created and returning students will advance their skill level.
Registration fee includes materials including clay and glazes, supplies, snack, and a camp t-shirt!
Projects need time to dry and will be fired in a kiln. Therefore, final projects will be available for pick up approximately 2 weeks after camp. The McKinney Center and camp instructors will notify parents when items are ready.
