Spend five days recreating the magic of the iconic 1969 festival with hits from Janis Joplin, CCR, Jimi Hendrix and more in our Woodstock music camp.
about this camp
In 1969, almost half a million people made a pilgrimage to Yasgur’s Farm in upstate New York for three days of peace and music. Catapulting many iconic artists who played this festival into superstar status, Woodstock embodies the spirit of the 60s. This week we'll celebrate the legendary and stylistically diverse artists who promoted unity and embraced freedom of expression like The Who, Jimi Hendrix, Santana, Janis Joplin, Sly & The Family Stone, CCR, the Grateful Dead! Students will spend Monday through Friday learning and practicing songs, all culminating in a live performance. Great for students 9-18 years old who have had some previous instruction.
