Join us for the 2025 Jazz Academy of Music (JAM) Camp, a dynamic two-week summer program where students ages 6–18 immerse themselves in the world of jazz under the guidance of top-tier faculty and professional jazz musicians. Whether your child is picking up an instrument for the first time or preparing for conservatory auditions, JAM Camp offers the tools, mentorship, and community to help them grow.
Participants will build their skills through improvisation workshops, theory classes, ear training, and interactive masterclasses. Eligible students will also have the opportunity to join a jazz combo or orchestra, deepening their musical experience in a fun, supportive, and creativity-driven environment.
Extended Day Camp (9:00 AM – 5:00 PM) is also available for students seeking a full-day experience, including additional practice time, electives, and supervised activities.
