Camp Nia is open to girls ages 11-14 and includes lunch and snacks. With an Afrocentric foundation, the camp addresses self-esteem, self-confidence, self-control, self-expression, cultural awareness, health & exercise, and proper diet via the performing arts. Four classes are offered: vocals, dance, drama, and stage design, and the girls select two classes to focus on for the duration of the camp. Classes are taught by experienced professionals who are assisted by high school and/or college students experienced in the craft being taught. The entire two weeks of Camp Nia are spent preparing for a culminating performance which is open to the community. The camp registration fee is $100 and due no later than July 15.
