Bluelaces Theater Company and CO/LAB Theater Group are proud to announce...
Camp BlueLAB will bring summer theater fun to kids ages 9-13. This camp experience will give participants an opportunity to explore the fundamentals of theater. The program will be facilitated by a team of Teaching Artists and further supported by a team of counselors comprised of actors with and without developmental disabilities. The camp will culminate in a sharing for friends and family.
We are so excited to invite you to be a part of Camp BlueLAB! Camp will take place Monday-Friday August 19th-August 30th from 9:30am-12:30pm at ART/NY Manhattan (520 8th Ave, 3rd floor). The program is free, but we require a $100 deposit to register.
If you are interested in enrolling someone as a camper please fill out our Registration Form HERE. We will get back to you with further information to confirm your registration (or spot on the waitlist) and process your deposit. Registration is on a first-come, first-serve basis. Spots are very limited so register now!
Camp BlueLAB is open to any camper 9-13 who identifies with having a developmental disability. The program is a drop off program as the room is supported by multiple BlueLAB staff and counselors. However, there are several needs that our staff does not yet have the capacity to support. Specific needs, in which BlueLAB cannot independently support include:
-
Behaviorial support (i.e. if a participant has any aggressive behaviors which may compromise the safety of the room)
-
Language support (i.e. if a participant needs an interpreter)
In these instances, CO/LAB and Bluelaces will work with the campers caregiver to come up with a plan to integrate them into the program with additional support. This usually results in the caregiver providing a one on one in the classroom who attends class with the camper and/or remains nearby.
If you have any questions regarding camp logistics, camper eligibility, or registration/deposit information please email us at camp@bluelacestc.com.
We can't wait to adventure with you this summer!
The BlueLAB team
