Thanks to support from the Essex County Arts Council’s Cultural Assistance Program Grant, “Impactful Voices” is open to students aged 13 to 15 area who have a passion for theater and storytelling. The camp aims to empower participants by providing a platform to create their own unique performance pieces, from playwriting to set building.

“We are thrilled to offer ‘Impactful Voices’ as a creative outlet for young individuals in our community,” said Courtney Allen, theater teacher at North Country School. “This camp is designed to inspire and amplify their voices, allowing them to express themselves through the art of theater.”

Before the camp officially begins, there will be two pre-camp meetings to brainstorm ideas and start developing characters and stories. All rehearsals and performances will be held at the state-of-the-art Walter Breeman Performing Arts Center (WallyPAC) at North Country School. The camp is free of charge, and lunch will be provided for all participants. Applications for the camp are due by July 15 and can be submitted online through a form available at https://forms.gle/tqxeDGtsJiDy8iw5A.
