With warmer days upon us, the official countdown to summer has begun. At ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½ÊÓƵÎÞÏÞÖƹۿ´’s Quick Center for the Arts, this means preparing to open our doors once again for the ever-popular Missoula Children’s Theatre Summer Camp and Summer Camp Intensives. These day programs are an exciting way to delve into the lively world of the arts, exposing campers to a variety of creative art forms.

Now more than ever, the arts and theatre offer kids a way to build friendships and share in the collective experience. Summer camps provide opportunities for collaboration, growth, confidence building, and some good solid fun.

 Celebrating the 31^st season of Missoula Children’s Theatre Camps at Fairfield, we are thrilled to offer six unique sessions to choose from this summer. Open to students in grades 1 through 12, Missoula campers will present a full-scale production with costumes, songs, and dance — after just one week of rehearsals!

We are also offering a brand-new Summer Intensive: “Introduction to Circus Skills.” With a bit of everything for everybody, this physical theater class is based on international circus skills and one rule: if you believe you can do it, you will!
