Project Title: Blues Kids Camp 2024
\nProject Description:<\/p>\n
In July of 2024 Delta Arts Center (DAC) will continue our week-long Blues Kids Camp, a partnership with Winston-Salem State University (WSSU) and Fernando Jones\u2019 International Blues Kids Camp program. Thirty students ages 11 to 18 will participate without cost in ensemble practices, learn from professional musicians, connect the Blues with American history and culture, and present a live stage performance at an authentic Blues venue. Blues Camp students use critical thinking skills in collaboration with peers and gain skills in digital music production.<\/p>\n
Students will participate in daily instrumental ensemble practice and other group activities as they improve their musical literacy, learn to play by ear, read basic chord charts, and learn to accompany vocalists and perform at a professional level. Students will demonstrate basic Blues patterns including 8 and 12-bar, call-and-response, and explore the \u201cart of the groove.\u201d <\/p>\n
The Delta Arts Center adds to the vitality of the historically Black area of Winston-Salem. We provide a culturally affirming haven for children and adults who need an outlet through art, where they will feel seen as people of color. The Delta location is especially appealing to residents of East Winston as few arts activities take place in our section of town. Blues Campers will be invited to participate in DAC activities throughout the year.<\/p>\n
The partnership of WSSU, a nearby historically Black university, means our Blues Kids will interact with examples and mentors in the music students and faculty who will collaborate in this intensive week of musical education. <\/p>\n
Blues Kids Camp provides students who primarily attend Title I Schools to experience an intensive musical education program located in the heart of their city\u2019s historic Black neighborhood. They learn that they are the future of the arts in their community.<\/p>\n
