Dance โ€ข Theater โ€ข Singing โ€ข Visual Arts โ€ข Friday Performance

Nimbus SummerArts is a full-day performing arts camp for children ages 4โ€“10 at our Springfield Ave studio. Each week has its own theme โ€” kids spend the week exploring it through dance, theater, singing, and art โ€” and every Friday the whole camp performs for families.

Led by professional Teaching Artists. Capped at 20 kids per group.

Register for just one week or all three โ€” each stands alone as its own complete adventure, with a unique theme, unique art projects, and a unique Friday performance.

Every Friday at 4pm, parents are invited to watch their camper perform live. Each week's theme comes to life in a real performance complete with lighting and staging.



Weekly Themes:

  • Take center stage during Broadway Week! Campers will dive into the magic of musical theater as they create show-stopping art, explore acting and movement, and bring classic Broadway stories to life through creative projects. Itโ€™s a week full of imagination, expression, and applause!

  • Step into a vibrant animal city during Zootopia Week! Campers will celebrate creativity and diversity by designing animal-inspired art, building imaginative worlds, and telling stories where everyoneโ€™s unique talents shine. This playful week is all about teamwork, self-expression, and discovering that anyone can be anything through art!

  • Become a hero for the Earth during Planet Protectors Week! Campers will explore creativity with a purpose as they make eco-inspired art, reuse materials in imaginative ways, and learn how small actions can make a big impact. This fun and thoughtful week celebrates caring for our planet through art, teamwork, and imagination.

  • Absolutely not! SummerArts is designed for all levels, from first-timers to kids with years of training. Our Teaching Artists meet each child where they are. Curiosity and enthusiasm are the only requirements.

  • Each day is structured around the week's theme โ€” campers rotate through dance, theater, singing, and visual arts activities with their group. There's outdoor time every other day (weather permitting), a quiet rest period for younger campers, and dedicated rehearsal time leading up to the Friday performance.

  • Fridays are performance day! At 4:00pm, families are invited to watch a live performance based on the week's theme. It's a real production โ€” not just a class demonstration. There is no after-care on Fridays.
