Join the Fresno Pacific University Music Department for our 2023 Summer Music Camp! The camp will take place from June 25-30, 2023 and is for students entering grades 6 through 12 (ages 11-19 as of September 1, 2023). It will be a week of intensive music making and learning, where students will study with outstanding university music faculty as we seek the development of personal responsibility, including effective practice habits, mutual respect and conceptual education as opposed to mere rote learning.
