Arts Smarts 2026 – Week 1: DANCE Afternoon Session – Grades 3-5

Balkan Blast
Here campers focus on the folk dances of the Balkans, a complex crossroads where Slavic, Ottoman, Byzantine, and Mediterranean influences blended and informed the musical festivities.  Learning the traditional ethnic dances of Balkan countries Serbia, Croatia, Macedonia, and Albania will have campers dancing away the week and readying for Friday’s showcase performance. No dance experience necessary.  Just wear good sneakers and be ready to smile and laugh while you dance your socks off!

Campers can register for morning sessions from 9:00 AM – 12:00 PM, afternoon sessions from 1:00 PM – 4:00 PM, or both! (For those staying all day, there is a supervised lunch period. Lunches must be brought to camp and will be refrigerated.) Morning and afternoon snacks are provided. Both mornings and afternoons feature a “Common Hour” in which all campers join together for a large group creative multi-disciplinary activity. On Fridays of both weeks, there are morning and afternoon performance showcases and art exhibits for families and friends featuring the campers’ work of each week. Drop-off and pick-up at the Ware Center is supervised by the staff.

Registration deadline is June 6, 2026.
