Bring a song you are working on or Denise will help you choose one. All styles welcome. Either accompany yourself or Denise will on the piano. Students will learn how to break down a song and connect to the piece through both the lyrics and the music. This is the perfect class for singers/actors who want to dig deep into bringing more expression and dynamic interpretation to their singing. Opportunity to work on solos, duets and/or small group numbers. Caz Horns - Jessica Jones, 12+ Come join the house horn section, available to perform with many different bands in camp, including the jazz, rock and gospel ensembles! We'll learn the music for each ensemble and will also rehearse with the rock band (and other ensembles as possible). Then we'll perform! Some experience on your instrument and basic reading ability necessary. Some riffing, some improv, some reading - we're the ones who make the music punch! Instruments: all woodwinds and brass welcome, strings considered. Caz Masks - Emiliana Simon-Thomas, 7+ Make your own magnificent Caz Mask. Like a time capsule, your plaster gauze Caz Mask will be an aesthetic testament to who you are and what’s on your mind these days - and as a bonus - it can be your head start for Halloween. Drawing inspiration from what matters most to you and examples from around the world, we’ll roll up our sleeves, use a variety of decorative approaches, and make something meaningful. (The plaster gauze part involves sitting still with stuff on your face one time for 10 to 15 minutes) Circus Arts - Jill Fjeldheim / Ben Glazer, 6+ This is a class for all levels, though especially good for beginners. Students will learn to ground deeply, improve core confidence, spatial awareness and practice integration of body/mind through very fun circus activities such as juggling, plate-spinning, stilts, rolling globe, ribbons and more. Students collaborate and develop acts for the Saturday night Circus Extravaganza!! Classical Caz Ensemble - Richard Vaughan / Lisa Chattler, 12+ Bring your band or orchestra instrument and join with other classical musicians for small group music making in an intimate setting. We will choose from duets, trios, quartets, and quintets. Musicians need to be able to read music at an intermediate level or beyond. Let’s bring Mozart to Caz! Creative Writing Performance Workshop, Joshua Silverstein, 13+ Whether you're beginning or advanced in your writing journey, this class is designed to usher you into a writing process that will help you relinquish trepidation, diminish writers block, and alleviate the doubt from your inner critic. As a collective, we will write and share pieces, daily, that are revelatory in the individual spirit and human condition. Please bring a journal/notebook and a writing utensil. Drum Set, Beginning - Keith Terry, 12+ Learn basic grooves in rock, jazz, Latin and R&B, while exploring the world of four-way independence with 2 hands and 2 feet.

Guitar: 5 Styles in 5 Days - Steve Gibson, 13+ Join Steve for a whirlwind tour through 5 different approaches to playing guitar. Each day we'll take a look at a different approach to guitar playing. There will be handouts and some instruction, but the class will focus on making music. The styles to be covered will be, Soukous guitar, R&B guitar, Malian guitar, Blues fingerpicking, and Improvisation. Jazz Dance, Beginning - Justine Villanueva, 6+ This class is designed for beginning dancers who are looking for energized fun, with both classic and current music of today. Class introduces students to syncopated rhythms, isolated body movements, and classic jazz moves. Focus is on improving rhythm, coordination, musicality, and strength. Learn some basic jazz dance vocabulary—jazz squares, lindy, grapevine, Charleston, chasse, etc.—and move to contemporary jazz-y pop songs with fun choreography. Kid City – Creative Play with Christie the Clown, 2.5 – 5 Christie brings her bag of tricks to engage and entertain our youngest campers. Clowning, puppetry, scarf dancing, storytelling, magic and more!!! Please refer to the website for additional details about Kid City.

(Limit 3 guitars, 2 keys, 2 bass, 2 drums, 6 vocalists) Music ExplORFF - Zack Pitt-Smith, 6+ Explore music making through body percussion, singing in rounds, using easy to access pitched and non-pitched percussion instruments and unlock your full potential to making music in an ensemble environment. An easy and encouraging environment to finding how rhythm harmony and melody fit together in all sorts of musical styles from around the world. Pandeiro - The Tambourine of Brazil! - Brian Rice, 10+ Pandeiro - known as the national instrument of Brazil, a drum set in a box, a frame drum on caffeine, this treasure of a percussion instrument is something we will learn how to groove whether it's the samba, bossa nova or northeastern baião. We will also look at a few other important instruments. Pandeiros will be provided or bring your own. DSLR Photography for Beginners - Auey Santos, 12+ or 10+ with Parent/ Guardian If you’ve paid a pretty penny for your fancy DSLR camera and have yet to use it -- this course is for you! Everything you'll need to know about creating stunning images will be tackled: understanding light, aperture, shutter speed, ISO, focus and creative exposure. The first few days will focus on camera handling and understanding your light meter and various exposure settings. Each class will be project based and the session will end with a photo exhibit. Requirements: Digital SLR Camera (with full manual settings), with interchangeable lenses, memory card reader and USB thumb drive. Desirable but not required, a tripod and a laptop with editing software. Play with Clay - Chris Fortin, 6 - 12 Join this class and get inspired by air-dry clay projects! Air-dry clay is a classic material that does not disappoint.

You can use these techniques to let your imagination run wild! Songwriting: Three Chords and the Truth - Marie Schumacher, 10+ Come enjoy the deep satisfaction that comes from writing your own songs! In this class, we’ll do several warm-up activities to get the musical and lyric ideas flowing. Then you will have time in class to develop these ideas (or other ideas you have) into songs. On the last day of class, you’ll have the option of sharing your songs-in-progress with the group. If you have an instrument that will help with the writing process, please bring it; if not, there will be a guitar and keyboard available to use. Cazadero Performing Arts Family Camp | Page 2 Steel Drums - Mark Rosenthal, 7+ We will be jamming from day one. It usually takes very little time to get our collective groove on. For one thing the instruments provided have all the notes written on the drums!! (shhh...don't tell anyone). Steel pans are not only a unique addition to the world's catalogue of instruments; they are also fun to play. If you enjoy the sound and have never played you need to check it out. One Trinidadian saying is: "Not I, "We!" and it is very much a community feeling playing in the steel band. In the class we explore different styles of music. Students will be given parts to play according to their level. Classes often prepare one or two pieces for a Sunday performance. Stone Carving - Eric Oldmixon and Sarah Myers, 10+ or 7+ with Parent Learn and practice the techniques of carving in the soft and versatile medium of soapstone. Beginning, Intermediate, Advanced students are all welcome. You will learn the whole process from developing a clear vision to “roughing out the form” with abrasive tools to refining with files and ultimately finishing through fine sanding and polishing. Demonstrations and sharing of ideas will accompany periods of focused (even meditative) time engaging with your stone. Soapstone carving is a great opportunity for parents and children to learn a new process together. Ukulele, Beginning - Kyle Blase, 8+ We will concentrate on traditional chord progressions, vamps, turnarounds and a little bit of the history and legend behind the ukulele. Several tunes will be introduced with the intent of mastering at least one during the week. We will emphasize maximizing playing time, keeping talking and lecturing to a minimum. Transpositions will be available to more advanced players that decide to further challenge themselves.

  • The Prescott Clowns
    The Prescott Clowns From Prescott Elementary School Oakland, California This energetic group of clowns is directed in an after school program by Aileen Moffitt, a second grade teacher, aka "Irma La Clown." These children receive training in circus skills from professionals, then dazzle everyone with their juggling, unicycle riding, and dancing. They give back to their community tenfold with workshops in classrooms and performances at many commu- nity events, nursing homes, and shelters -- besides a long list of school assemblies. "Wherever we perform -- from lavish banquet receptions to small neighborhood events -- it is our intention to dispel negative myths about the children of West Oakland. And we do!" These children sometimes labeled "at risk," become "at promise'' behind a red nose. On the cover: The 1998 Senior Prescott Clowns Photos by: Betty McAfee, except where indicated. Clown Makeup by: the Clowns themselves Clockwise from the top left: Jacori “Orangey Orange” Lee; Tashika ‘”Lifesaver” Boston; Brandon “YoYo” Swain; Angelina “Slinky” Johnson; Robert “CiMore” Gaines; Jerome “Feather” Martin; Alexis “Roller Coaster” Meredith; Eric “E.T.” Yanez; Dominique “Sunny” Simmons; Aracely “Rosey” Rodriques; Angelic “Cherry Nose” Brown; Jessica “Polar Bear” Bennett; Shamika “Genie” Bell; Olajuwon “Bogus” Bell. Photo by: Aileen Moffitt “All it takes is a warm heart and a red nose.” Aileen Moffitt started this school clown program after taking a clown class with Arina Iscaason 20 years ago at the Oakland Parks and Recreation Department. This will be the 15th season for the Prescott Clown Troupe. Last year in addition to the Senior Clowns, they incorporated a Junior Clown Troupe - third graders of 8 or 9 years old.
