All Genres Welcome! For Middle and High School Students!
Plug in and level up your skills this summer! Our Electric Guitar Summer Camp invites middle and high school students of all experience levels to explore the full range of what the electric guitar can do—across any genre you love. From rock, pop, and blues to metal, jazz, indie, and beyond, this camp is built for curious players who want to grow, experiment, and have fun.
Guided by experienced instructors, students will dive into technique, tone, improvisation, rhythm skills, and creative expression through daily group classes and individualized coaching. Workshops on effects, gear, songwriting, and ensemble playing help students broaden their toolkit and discover new musical pathways.
Campers will collaborate with peers to learn riffs, jam, create arrangements, and develop performance confidence in a supportive, energetic environment. The experience culminates in a final showcase where students can highlight their personal style and influences—whatever they may be.
Whether you’re a beginner ready to learn or an advancing player looking to push your sound further, this camp is the place to explore your musical identity and make some seriously great noise.
