Cole Arts Camp Summer 2025

One of the Bay Area's most popular drama and storytelling camps for over 20 years in the Bay Area, teaching also immersive Dance, Drumming and Visual Arts. A fun, imaginative balance of creativity.

Campers cycle between Drama/Puppeteering/Stories, Dance/Drums, and Visual Arts throughout the day in groups of 15 or less depending on enrollment and divided into older and younger groups. Most days end with storytelling by Doug with the whole group.

Doug leads students in creative drama, theater games, puppetry, improv, comedy and storytelling. Each day he will tell some of his most popular stories about his childhood, years as a classroom teacher and parent, original stories, as well as his favorite myths, legends and fairy tales from around the world. Children will also have the chance to develop their own original stories, skits and puppet shows individually and in group. 

André guides students through a variety of fun movement activities learning fundamental hip hop dance techniques, and popular moves throughout the past five decades. Andre brings funny, imaginative, engaging energy to inspire students to move in new, cool, clever and athletic ways.
