Summer Camp

Good Vibrations: Art, Science and a Music Video!

The A²SO has teamed with the Ann Arbor Hands-On Museum to explore how sound is generated, how humans hear, and how instruments and the human voice can make beautiful music. During the first half of the day, campers will have a chance to make musical instruments, play musical instruments, learn simple conducting patterns, explore symphonic music, move to the music, learn about sound waves and how the human ear hears and so much more! Then, after lunch, the class will work together to create a MUSIC VIDEO, premiering it for parents on the last day of class! This camp will be collaboratively (and harmoniously) taught by Ann Arbor Hands-On Museum staff and Ann Arbor Symphony Orchestra staff.

We want to take a moment to thank the Pinckney School District for the generous donation of Orff instruments for use during this camp.

Campers should bring their own snack, lunch and drink each day.
