YEAH Freqout Camp

FreqOut [frēkout], an online music-based camp for people ages 10-17, will be presented by local nonprofit organization Youth Empowerment through Arts and Humanities (YEAH!).

This transformational virtual program, open to musicians of all skill levels, will focus on instrument instruction and life skill development  in a supportive, collaborative environment that is fostered by talented mentors and counselors.

Daily activities will include a morning assembly, music lessons, lunchtime performances by guest artists, youth-led breakout discussions, and workshops on topics like zine-making, merchandising, and effects pedal construction. Camp will occur via the Webex video conferencing platform, chosen for its security and capacity for hosting groups.

Registration for FreqOut Virtual Music Camp—as well as its coordinating Ready to Rock Camp (July 6-10, 2020) for ages 5-10—is now open at yeahrocks.org. Scholarships are available for those unable to attend due to financial barriers. Campers without access to an instrument may borrow one for the week-long session using no-contact checkout from YEAH!’s Gear Lending Library.
