    4. Once Upon A Dance: Through an exploration of dance styles around the world, campers will learn the ins-and-outs of telling a story through movement. Each day, we will look at a different style of dance, the types of stories they typically tell, and how they approach narrative through dance.

    8. Clay Creations: Campers will have the opportunity to learn how to work with ceramic clay by building pinch pots and coil pots. Our artists will get to paint their pieces with underglaze. We will go on an amazing tour of a local ceramics studio where they will learn about the process of how the pieces they create go from wet clay to fully functional or decorative pieces through glazing and firing. Artists will be able to create 2-3 small pieces and will be able to pick up their work 1 week after camp ends.
      Greenwood: Week 7 - 8/2      Ballard: Week 2 - 6/28
    9. Dance Here, Dance There: Dance Here, There or Anywhere! Campers will spend the week learning about, viewing examples of, and creating site-specific dance - dances that do not occur on a stage and are influenced by their surroundings. Working in solos, duets, and trios, the campers will create new site-specific pieces each day, making choices based on their unique location. We will ask ourselves, “How did our location affect the choices we made? How would our dance change if we performed it in a separate place or on a stage?”
      Greenwood: Week 9 - 8/16      Ballard: Week 6 - 7/26
    10. Young Play Writers: Calling all Play Writers!

    • My kids have attended ILS for Pre-K, Kindergarten, and summer camps, and every single day, they go to school excited to learn and engage and come home happy, energized, and eager to share everything they’ve absorbed during the day. With the upheaval of the last year, ILS has provided stability for my kids, first online, and then in person, with their creative, dynamic programming (like Harry Potter summer camp!), and it has given our whole family so much comfort. I am so grateful to have found ILS for my kids!

    • ILS has provided wonderful after school enrichment for my children for the past 3 years, in addition to wonderful summer camps. During COVID, they have ensured safety with strict enforcement of health policies. I love that my daughter can still have some “fun” during these difficult times.

    • ILS is the highlight of my 7-year-old daughter’s day. She’s built strong friendships, loves her teachers and most importantly, really loves the programming. She comes home every day excited to share the art she’s created or tell us about a new skill she’s learned. We highly recommend ILS. It is filling a need for our daughter that isn’t filled during her school day. Thank you, ILS!
