What's Happening at Kathy's Music This Summer

By Kathy's Music June 11, 2025

Our Summer Drop-Off Camps are more than just themed fun—they’re your child’s first hands-on experience with playing a real instrument!

Each camp includes daily time on the piano or ukulele, giving kids a chance to:
🎹 Learn a simple song they can play confidently by the end of each day.
🎵 Feel the thrill of “I can do it!” as they hear themselves make music.🎶 Explore new sounds and instruments, helping them decide what they might want to study in the future.

From Musical Safari to Superhero Camp, every theme includes engaging music, movement, and art—all paired with a chance to play real music on a real instrument. And for kids who love to strum, Ukulele Camps offer a fast-track to musical fun in just four days!

💬 “My child came home from camp excited to show me the song they learned on the keyboard. They couldn’t wait to come back the next day!”
✨ Spots are filling fast—choose your child’s favorite theme today!

Looking for a way to add rhythm, teamwork, and fun to your child’s music education? Our Bucket Band classes are here!

Designed for students ages 10–14, Bucket Band uses everyday plastic buckets to create exciting percussion music. It’s the perfect opportunity for private lesson students to gain ensemble experience and build confidence in a fun, social setting.

🥁 Options:

  • Weekly Bucket Band Class: Thursdays at 6 PM (4 weeks, starting 7/10)
  • One-Week Bucket Band Camp: August 11–15, 6 PM (M–F), with a special performance during the last 10 minutes of camp

Led by Nick Fagnilli, the weekly class focuses on collaboration, creativity, and rhythmic development—no prior drumming experience needed!
