Camp Theme: Adventure Earth
4th-12th grade students will hone their confidence, grow their creativity, and challenge their discipline in our annual, week long sleep away camp! Students can join YAT staff and professional artists for a technology-free week unlike any other: an immersive theatrical experience inspired by our one and only home planet that bridges theatre and environmental science curriculums. By connecting with our natural surroundings we will find a deeper connection with ourselves and with each other. This summer's theatrical experience will explore those connections and dive deep into the Indiana wilderness. Pulling inspiration from what we learn about the natural world, we'll build an immersive theatrical experience as well as a better understanding of our place in the world.
COVID-19 Update: As of now, the Experiment is scheduled for July 5th-11th, falling after the July 4th estimate of general re-opening from the Governor. We remain hopeful that we can safely conduct The Experiment as planned at Camp Rivervale, but are also exploring the option of turning it into a day camp. We will know more in a few weeks, and will keep this page updated.
July 5th-11th
