Explore the world of fantasy and fairy tales through writing, theater and visual arts.  Students will read and write fairy tales and fantasy with the goal of creating their own fairy tales. As a team, students will write, produce and perform a play about fairies and fantastical creatures. We will then build their own fairy houses.  Using only natural materials, students will work each day to create an imaginary home/environment for their characters.  Camp will culminate in a performance of the play and an exhibition of the houses for families and the public to experience. 

Scholarships available. Please contact Erin Kaufman 802.367.1306 or ekaufman@svac.org.
