  • Program 2 [2023]

    Blue Grass Camp is a week long program for students entering the 4th to 8th grade. Students are introduced or learn different instruments and styles of bluegrass music. Teaching artists are brought to Juneau to work with both the students and teachers in the Juneau Area. The week was held at the Juneau Ski Resort lodge so besides music instruction there were opportunities for play, team building and quiet times to enjoy the surroundings. The camp is tuition free and is paid for by grants and sponsorships. Grants received for the camp included Margaret A Cargill Artful teaching, Alaska State Council on the Arts Artists in Schools program, CBJ Major Grant and the Juneau Community Foundation youth and Education grant.
