Grammy Camp

GRAMMY Camp

Grammy Camp is the best summer music program ever.

You get to spend more than a week living, breathing, eating, drinking music – with students from all over the country and music industry pros who know how it all works. You’ll meet guest artists, write and record new music, visit cool music sites, and finish strong with a final concert in a professional venue. And you’ll get really great GRAMMY Camp swag.
Plus – financial assistance is available for students who need it.

GRAMMY Camp 2011 had two summer sessions:

GRAMMY Camp NY – August 2-8 – Converse Rubber Tracks Studio – Brooklyn
Thirty-five high school students from all over the country descended on Brooklyn on August 2, 2011 for 7 days of total music immersion. GRAMMY Camp NY is hosted by Converse at its brand new “Rubber Tracks” studio in Brooklyn.

Each student will come to Camp in a specific career field: Music Business & Production, Singer/Songwriter, or Performance – Instrumental or Vocal. Teams will be created from each of these fields to take a music project from inception culminating with a launch party held at the Best Buy Theater in Times Square. This real-world, hands on environment will involve an in-depth look at the entire creative process from its first spark of original material through the promotion and marketing of a finished product.
You day will be packed from early to late – in classes, in rehearsals, on field-trips, and listening to guest artists. GRAMMY nominees and winners make up the core faculty as well as lots of the guests that you’ll spend time with throughout Camp.

Campers will sleep and eat – and hopefully shower daily – in nearby housing accommodations. Financial assistance is available for students who need it. And a discounted tuition is available if you want to go to Camp NY

They are also hiring counselor positions.

8 YA BOOK CLUB BOOKS TO READ FOR GREAT DISCUSSIONS

Alice Nuttall   Sep 5, 2023 B ook clubs aren’t just a way to enjoy reading and branch out by trying books you wouldn’t have picked for yourself — they’re also a great way to get into discussions of multiple different subjects inspired by the reading you’ve done together. While book clubs can be beneficial to people of all ages, they can be a particularly helpful place for teens to engage with new ideas, put their opinions forward, and take part in friendly discussions about everything from social issues to the writing process. I’ve been in a few book clubs over the years, and while I certainly haven’t loved everything I’ve read as part of them, it definitely led me to YA book club books I otherwise would never have tried and got me looking at a whole range of different perspectives. School is back in session for the autumn, and whether you’re an educator yourself or just want to help the teens in your life discover new books, a YA book club is a great way to get young people engage...

CLASSIC YA BOOKS THAT MADE YOU FEEL SEEN

  K.W. Colyard   Jul 26, 2023 SPEAK   BY LAURIE HALSE ANDERSON I’m sure I’d heard of another book about rape before  Speak  came along. Hell, I might even have read one. But these days? This is the only book I can remember that dealt with one of the myriad possible reactions to sexual assault: silence.  Speak  and other books that deal with similar subject matter have the ability to empower victims of abuse to label what’s happened to them and seek help. ARE YOU THERE GOD? IT’S ME, MARGARET  BY JUDY BLUME Once a staple on banned books lists, Judy Blume’s most famous novel has been teaching preteens about puberty — including menstruation and boob exercises — since 1970.  Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret  was far ahead of its time, being one of the first children’s books to show an interfaith family on the page, and — along with Lois Lowry’s Anastasia Krupnik — depicted a child allowed to make up her own m...
