The DAC offers four camp programs between June 10 and August 23, 2024. Choose from Mini Camp, Cultural Camp, Cirque de Danse, and Teen Intensives.
Youth Camps (ages 5-12) start at $200 per week, 9AM – 3PM (Drop-off begins at 8AM). Need full day care? Add Afternoon Adventures to your camper’s registration for $80 week, so they can stay until 5:30PM each day, having even MORE creative fun!
Scholarships available based on financial need with an application and verified proof of income. When funds are available, a camper may receive up to 75% off the gross tuition of up to two weeks of camp.
