Attend this great camp to gain valuable experiences, learn new techniques, and develop long-lasting friendships while experiencing our inspiring university.

Work hard! 

Our mission is to develop and nurture 9-12 grade musicians by helping them discover new literature, techniques, and ideas while fostering confidence and enthusiasm. Instructors include many UW-Stevens Point Department of Music Faculty Artists to ensure the best learning environment for students who are serious about music. Learn more about the faculty here.

Try something new! 

Learn about the great Hollywood film scores. Participate in an informal music-making class or take a beginning improvisation class.

Immerse Yourself! 

Each student receives instruction on their primary instrument each day in studio and master classes.

Have Fun!

Perform on a talent show. Try out yoga for the first time or go on a trip to the Schmeekle Reserve to enjoy nature and read poems. Are you a night owl? Play Zombie night tag in the Noel Fine Arts Center. Go on an ice cream run to Belt's or play board games with other campers and counselors. 

Whether you are an instrumentalist, a vocalist, a composer or a pianist,

Point Music Camp is the place to be this summer!
