Welcome to a summer of brand-new programs for kids of all ages! From storybook-loving tykes to spoken word obsessed teens, there’s something for everyone at BAM this July. These carefully designed one- and two-week programs offer the perfect blend of creativity, fun, and challenge, ensuring an eye-opening, enriching experience for children and young adults alike. All workshops culminate with a final event for family and friends.

In BAM Youth Summer Programs, kids and teens will:
• build self-confidence, practice leadership and teamwork skills, and exercise creativity
• learn from world-class BAM teaching artists and guests
• benefit from specially provided services like early drop-off and late pick-up
• take advantage of BAM’s state-of-the-art facilities
Registration starts April 2 for Friends of BAM and April 5 for the general public. Sessions fill up fast, so be sure to sign up early!
