Accelerando Music @ "The Barn"

Get ready for a full day of music, magic, movement, and creativity! This camp is designed for kids ages 6–10 and is offered as two exciting half-day sessions that can be taken separately or combined for a full-day camp experience.
In our Shadow Pop session, campers will dive into the world of K-pop and popular music as they learn fun choreography-inspired routines, explore rhythm instruments, create high-energy beats, and work together on music video-style performances. Campers will build confidence, musicality, teamwork, and stage presence while moving, singing, drumming, and performing to the upbeat music kids love.
In our Wizard Academy session, campers will enter a magical world of wizardly music-making inspired by the wonder and imagination of Harry Potter. Students will be sorted into houses for friendly competitions, create potions, complete magical challenges, and explore mysterious sounds, rhythms, and melodies through instruments, movement, and creative activities. From spellbinding music games to enchanted ensemble work, campers will use music and imagination to bring the magic to life.
Families may register for either half-day session or combine both for a full-day adventure. Full-day campers will enjoy a rich mix of pop music, rhythm, movement, creativity, fantasy, teamwork, and performance — perfect for kids who love music, dancing, imaginative play, and a little bit of magic!
