From: New Ballet Ensemble and School

Summer is fast approaching at New Ballet! Highly engaging and fun-filled, our Summer Camps vary in themes and activities focused on whole child development. Teaching and Performing Artists work with children ages 3-11 to hone their creativity through dance, music, theater and crafts.

New Ballet provides needed materials for each camp. Campers are asked to bring a snack and a refillable water bottle. New students not enrolled in New Ballet for 2023 spring or fall semester will pay a one-time annual $25 registration fee.
