Summer Activity Extroadinaire: August 6-17, 2012

In 1997 Carl Grubbs, internationally renowned saxophonist, and Barbara Harrell Grubbs, retired educator, founded Summer Activity Extraordinaire (SAX) Music and Dance Camp Program. The program is held on the campus of Loyola University in Maryland. SAX provides music and dance training and appreciation to children and youth ages 4-17.  The program accepts participants at all levels of proficiency.

SAX offers an intense two-week specialized arts program of individualized, small and large group instruction in selected areas of instrumental/vocal music and dance. Our instructors are local artists who have experience teaching youth.  We own our own instruments and participants are allowed to take them home to practice.

Participants bring or purchase their lunches in the college café.
