Alley Play Makers camps are back in full swing at Alley Theatre!
We are thrilled to offer an experience that is sure to bring creative joy, in-person cheers, and fast friends to your kids. Each camp session explores big ideas and questions connected to award-winning children’s books through three class rotations: acting/storytelling, movement, and makerspace. Alley Play Makers culminates in a joyous, celebratory performance that demonstrates our campers’ learning for parents and friends.
