Our campers experience all that the Creative Arts Academy has to offer in our 12-day sessions. From arts majors, chugim (electives), and kinesthetic arts (recreational activities) to all-camp programs that build community, a session of camp helps campers advance their skills, discover new passions and make friends that could last a lifetime, while also growing as individuals in a fast paced communal living environment.
Join us for 1, 2, 4 or 6 weeks of Summer 2024!

Our Units
Taste of Camp
Campers in rising grades 3-5 have the opportunity to attend CAA in late July for a sample of what is to come! Taste of Camp participants sample many of our majors, participate in camp-wide program, and experience life at CAA for 5 days. This is a great option for younger campers who enjoy the arts but aren’t ready to select a major yet or are not yet ready for a full session experience.
Bonim, Shoreshim, and Olim
In their chosen discipline, Bonim campers build their skills, Shoreshim campers broaden their roots, and Olim campers step up to the next level. Participants in rising grades 4-11 practice and perform in a dynamic, challenging and FUN environment. Participants set personal goals, increase skills, and work toward portfolio/audition quality pieces.
Gesher
Gesher, meaning bridge, focuses on the leadership development of young individuals as participants and role models within the camp community for rising 12th grade students. As part of this 4 week program, participants experience skill building within the arts discipline of their choosing, as well as professional development in key areas of camp: residential life, programming, and logistics. Gesher participants shadow staff of all camp areas while participating in Arts Majors, Showcase, and Shabbat. A select group is accepted into this program based on their Gesher applications (separate from CampMinder application), personal interviews, and references. Artists rising in grade 12 spend up to 4 hours each day in one Major Studio from the list above.
