Summer Music School (SMS '23) will run every weekday from 8:00 am to 12:00 pm beginning June 28th and ending July 14th. SMS is sponsored by the Edmonds School District’s Visual and Performing Arts Department. This exciting program offers a diverse mix of music performance and exploratory opportunities for students entering 6th through 12th grade. (For students whose primary instrument is not voice, one year of instrumental music experience is required.)
Our faculty of professional educators and musicians maintain a positive atmosphere that promotes student growth while supporting their self-confidence and personal pride. The camp will culminate with an evening concert, and informal elective concerts. All music students are welcome, and encouraged to be a part of the fun!
Students outside of the Edmonds School district are also welcome but will have to register via USPS. See registration and payment information below.
