Another Great Camp: Young Musicians & Artists

Space is still available!

SESSION 1: Sunday, June 23 – Friday, July 5, 2013

SESSION 2: Sunday, July 7 – Friday, July 19, 2013

Young Musicians & Artists seeks accomplished musical students to play shoulder-to-shoulder with professional musicians from around the country, work with YMA Music Program Director Michael Gesme, and perform in a state-of-the-art concert hall (Hudson Hall). The students will spend two weeks living and playing on the Willamette University campus, surrounded by other young adults who love music as much as they do. High school students have the opportunity to enter into our leadership training program, which can lead to a counselor position.

Please encourage your students to follow in the footsteps of 50 years of notable musicians while making lifelong friends! Tuition assistance is available to those who qualify.

Questions? Please call Quinland Porter at 503.281.9528.
