Snacks are included in camp tuition. Prior music instruction or having your own instrument is not required.

HCOA Presents Summertide, mixed media artwork by Kathleen McCarthy on display in the HCOA Gallery through August 1st!

"Using acrylics, and watercolor with pastel, my goal is to bring the peace of the outdoors and all its beauty inside, to splash the walls with color and fill them up. To showcase the little fleeting moments of the world around us as a reminder to take time to pause and enjoy it.” -Kathleen McCarthy

Stop by HCOA during summer hours to see her show!

"Euripides, the great tragic playwright, has recently died, and Athens has undergone years of political turmoil. Dionysus, the god of parties and of drama, decides that the two phenomena are causally related, and he makes a plan to retrieve Euripides from the Underworld to save the city." - Randolph College
