Icicle Creek
Summer Camp

Our summer camps are designed to get your student out into nature, exploring the arts, and having a blast. Here are a few of the things our camps all have in common.

  • We believe the arts are for everyone, so we’re aiming to make our camps accessible to all the students who live in North Central Washington. Our day camps are devised with locals in mind; because serving our community is our priority.

    With different classes, a variety of topics targeted at different ages, and a tiered tuition system, there is something for everyone. We’re thrilled to welcome more local kids to our campus than ever before!

  • We are offering a tiered payment system ($400/$325/$250) where you may pick the pricing that fits your budget best. Your selection is based on the honor system and is kept confidential. All students and campers will participate equally. Picking the highest tier when possible ensures that we can continue offering high quality programming to all students and campers.

    Icicle Creek Kids is a half day camp with tiered pricing starting at $175.

  • All of our full day camps include lunch and snacks, included in the price of summer camp. Our meals are prepared fresh each day for campers - and we are happy to make accommodations for dietary needs. For our littles camp (which is a half day camp) snacks will be provided each day.

  • All camps, except theater, are listed by grade, with the intention that these are the grade ranges students will be going into after summer break.

ACTING CAMP

AN EXTRAORDINARY SUMMER CAMP EXPERIENCE FOR ASPIRING YOUNG THEATER ENTHUSIASTS IN A SPECTACULAR MOUNTAIN SETTING.

The week-long, day camp immerses students into the world of theater in a fun, safe and nurturing environment where campers will have the opportunity to explore acting, Shakespeare, playwriting, monologues, scene study, movement and voice for the actor within their own groups of similar age. Directed by Richard Padro, the camp is a training ground taught by theater professionals from Seattle, New York and Los Angeles that will culminate in a presentation for family and friends at the beautiful state of the art Snowy Owl Theater.

MUSICAL THEATER CAMP

AGES 11 - 18

LEARN TO BECOME THE ULTIMATE TRIPLE THREAT DURING THIS WEEK OF ACTING, SINGING AND DANCING.

Young musical theater performers will learn to become triple threats of the stage as they work with inspiring professionals in each discipline.  Auditioning for musicals, acting a song, giving honest and engaging portrayals in a musical, and doing it all with confidence and energy are emphasized in the week’s Master Classes.  Young actors in this camp will present scenes, songs, and dances from several musicals at week’s end.

STORYTELLING BEYOND THE PAGE

Become a storyteller through art! Campers dig into the elements and traditions of storytelling to create new works in multiple disciplines. Each student will create pieces of art that tell their own original stories. Topics include writing and performing poetry and short prose, designing and illustrating mini publications (zines), and roleplaying game (RPG) character creation and worldbuilding. Campers will get to showcase their art at the end of camp and take home an artifact of their work.
