CACTUS Fine Arts Summer Day Camp
Creativity abounded at CACTUS Fine Arts Day Camp, as children and youth entering grades 3-8 explore the arts! Master teachers offered instruction in vocal development, Orff instrument instruction, Kodály techniques for music literacy, drama, motivating musical games, dance, visual art and handbells. Participants gained a wealth of knowledge, as well as increased confidence in using the imagination. The week-long camp concluded on Sunday morning as campers participated in morning worship, sharing their creativity with the congregation.
