Stretches the Imagination
This June 2-13, we will offer Camp Imagination, the Webb Center’s sixth annual, two-week intensive hands-on program of activities that integrates visual and performing arts mediums to stretch the imaginations’ of 120 children grades 1–12. 

Collabrative Effort
The Webb Center offers this program each summer with assistance from the Wickenburg Unified School District (who provides classroom facilities) and the Desert Caballeros Western Museum (who coordinates the visual arts classes for camp). 

Targeted to Skill Level
Camp Imagination participants are grouped according to their grade and choose from a variety of arts classes targeted to their skill levels.  First through third graders are given the opportunity to participate in tumbling, hip hop, artful crafts, or vocal classes.  Fourth through sixth graders have tumbling, ballet, hip hop, comedy, drama, vocal, water colors, and acrylics as their choice of classes.  Seventh through twelfth graders can choose from advanced dance, jazz/hip hop, stage makeup, musical theatre, technical theatre and charcoal drawing classes.  Students sixth grade and up are also encouraged to audition for lead roles in the final production. 

Hands-on Instruction
Those rewarded with casted roles meet intensively with an acting and a singing coach to challenge them with advanced performance techniques and skills. 

Camp Imagination classes are also supplemented daily with “Arts Exploration” workshops. 

Last year these workshops included miming, improvisation, weaving, classical music performed by a string quartet from the Phoenix Symphony, filmmaking and Latin music and percussion.

The unique opportunities that Camp Imagination provides are available to every child who wishes to participate with full and partial scholarships offered.

Life Changing
At the end of the two weeks, Camp Imagination culminates in a life changing stage production starring all of the campers, either on stage as actors, singers and dancers or behind the scenes as the technical crew. 

Children also participate in making the final production a huge success by working as student directors, make-up crew, technical crew on lights and sound, and as stagehands that help build the set.

This past June, 120 campers performed Honk, Jr. to an appreciative audience of over 500 family members and friends.
