Philharmonic To Host String Summer Camp

The Philharmonic will be hosting its first String Summer Camp this summer. Students will spend a week learning how to play the violin, make music together, and have an exciting camp experience at the new downtown Philharmonic Center! Two sessions will be offered and students can register for one or both weeks of camp, based on availability.

The camp will be held Monday – Friday from 9:00 am to 3:00 pm and is open to elementary school students entering grades 2-5. Beginner and intermediate levels are available, and violins will be provided to students for the duration of the session.
