New Brunswick, N.J.  Summer at Mason Gross School of the Arts returns with 15 reimagined programs in Art & Design, Dance, Music, and Theater, including Kids Create! arts immersion camp for children entering grades K-8. Programs span 1weeks and are available beginning July 6 through the end of August Participants ages 518 can explore, create, and perform under the guidance of Rutgers faculty from the comfort of home.  

 

As a response to COVID-19 and University guidelines, Rutgers Community Arts began developing plans for a remote summer in March 2020 after successfully transitioning their spring programming and private music lessons to an online format. In a typical summer, Mason Gross welcomes around 500 pre-college participants for intensive programs in Art & Design, Dance, Filmmaking, Music, and Theater, as well as an exciting three weeks of Kids Create! arts immersion camp for children entering grades K-8. With many of Rutgers Community Arts’ programs reimagined for a virtual landscape, as well as some new additions, children can still receive thoughtfully developed, university-led arts programming.  

 

Highlights for this virtual summer session include new animation and graphic design courses for children ages 1018, dance classes for children as young as Pre-K, and an expanded 8 weeks of Kids Create! arts immersion camp. Private music instruction is also available for new and returning students!
