This fast-paced, highly interactive, fun camp will provide students who have completed grades K-5 with an opportunity to explore the Arts through drama, dance, vocal music, percussion, visual arts, puppetry, photography, and more!

What Is Creative Arts Camp?
Students who have completed grades K-5 will have an opportunity to explore the Arts through drama, dance, vocal music, percussion, visual arts, puppetry, photography, and more. While campers are exploring the Arts, they will also be learning how to follow God while using the talents He has given them. Campers will select a Focus Group to be their area of interest for the week. At the end of the week on Friday, August 4 at 7 pm, we will have a special performance for the public that will showcase all campers and their Focus Groups.
This exciting camp will group students by age with both a Counselor and a Counselor-in-Training. Campers will travel with their small groups and build relationships throughout the week. Creative Arts Camp 2023 is a must for your child!
LifePoint Church’s Creative Arts Camp exists so that children:
- Discover more about Jesus and His desire to be their friend.
- Build relationships with peers and camp staff who model for them how to follow God.
- Experience different forms that worship can take while honing the talents God has placed within them.
- Celebrate God through the Arts.
Workshops
Campers will find a whole new beat by exploring a variety of rhythm exercises using non-traditional instruments.
Campers will focus on interpreting music through creative movement. They will work on the dances that they will perform for the opening and closing of the Friday night show.
Campers will sharpen performance skills through a variety of theatre games, improvisation, and exercises in character development.
Campers will creatively build a puppet that they will use as they learn the fundamentals of puppetry. Using their puppets the campers will also learn how to lip sync with music.
Campers will work on using their voices to praise God. They will work on the songs that they will perform for the opening and closing of the Friday night show.
