Evergreen Music Festival
Two sessions for orchestral instrumentalists in Tacoma.
From their site:
We are pleased to share our excitement for this summer’s EMF. Due to Covid-19 restrictions both sessions will be held at Urban Grace Church, Tacoma. Session I has been moved forward two weeks and Session II will be in an “extended day camp” format. The number of students and adults will be LIMITED to allow for “Social Distancing.” Students will be provided with a TYSA face mask, temperatures will be taken each morning, hygiene will be regularly encouraged as well as other CDC recommended safety measures.
Allegro Dance
Allegro offers a musical theater & drama camp, fun, themed classes, day long intensives, and much more! Their spacious studio is convenient to young dancers in Kent, Auburn, and the greater area.
Note from SFM: It looks like these are a go, but I haven’t confirmed, so you will want to double check.
