Registration Open for Broadway Bound summer camp

Join CFA and Beaufort Children’s Theatre for a summer camp bound for fun! 

Registration is open for the 2024 Broadway Bound summer camp being held June 17 through 28.

The camp runs from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., Monday through Friday. Children aged 8 to 12 are invited to register.

Campers – led by Camp Directors Anna Booman, Valencia King and Christa Booman – will engage in all aspects of musical theatre, while gaining self-confidence and the ability to express themselves as they learn basic acting skills, vocal instruction, and choreography. The highlight of the camp will be the children’s creation of their own show!

The cost of camp is $275 for the two weeks. A T-shirt is included. Limited scholarships are available.

The deadline to register is May 31. The final camp performance will be held at 6 p.m., Thursday, June 27. The camp will wrap up the next day at noon.

Please download, complete and print the participation packet found at https://bit.ly/3PCkjTR and bring it to camp. To register and pay for the camp, visit https://bit.ly/3VzbMF1.

International Mermaid Day Friday

Celebrate International Mermaid Day at noon, Friday, March 29, on the USCB Center For The Arts Lawn. Join the CFA for a special Water Blessing Ceremony with beloved healer and spiritual teacher Ifetayo White.

Attendees are invited to bring a few flowers (natural only please), bells, or chimes and join the procession to the water’s edge where those gathered will pay homage to mystical goddess and sea maidens who inhabit the waters.
Share in a time of remembrance, speak the names of and make offerings to the memories and spirits of ancestors you want to acknowledge. Prior to the celebration, visit the Center for the Arts gallery for the last weeks of the “Mermaids, Africa to America” art exhibit which closes that day.

Stillwagon’s upcoming show uses a variety of acrylic paints with the main focus on bold colors that create an emotional response from the viewer.
