• And of course…to have fun!

What you will need:

• A VIOLIN
  • These can be purchased or rented either online, or at a local store (see more below)
• A music stand

Cost:

The camp is priced at $250.00 ($220.00 Early Bird Special!)

**West End Music Camp also encourages students to sign up for private lessons to complement their learning**
