Kutandara’s Summer Camp is a unique cross-cultural program that gives children an in-depth opportunity to explore music, dance, and art from southern Africa in a day camp setting. Kids play by ear and build their musical confidence on all levels! If your kids are already doing music, this is the perfect match. If your kids haven’t yet had success with conventional music – you’ll love this! No prior musical experience is necessary.
