888 Monkeys Summer Arts Program
For kids 9–16, we offer a Full Day Program. Two different 2-week sessions are available. Each session, kids collaborate with drama, art, circus, and movement professionals to create and perform their own show. No prior experience necessary.

The first week of the program is spent on skill development. The second week participants choose their specialties and tackle specific show business jobs — painting flats, memorizing dialogue, creating circus acts, learning dance choreography, and promoting the show.
