Up With People Junior is a non-profit summer camp for children that promotes global and cultural awareness, community service, self-awareness and leadership through performing arts. The songs, activities and mission used are from the Global Education and Performing Arts Program, Up With People.
The curriculum is rooted in learning and performing Up With People songs and dances, participating in community action projects, and creating respect, awareness and appreciation, both locally and globally, for different cultures. Students are equipped with skills and habits to make positive changes in their homes, schools, community and the world. To end an unforgettable experience, the camp finishes with a high energy performance for parents and other community members. We would also include an additional performance geared to children during the annual Mile of Music event in Appleton where the campers will have an opportunity to perform for a much larger audience and spread the message of diversity and cultural appreciation to our entire community.

We are very excited to be returning and have a wonderful camp lined up for Appleton! Students will be learning about Switzerland, South Africa and Japan. One of the focuses during the week, will be teaching our kids about the current refugee crisis going on in our world today. It is in the works to tie in a community service project around this to help those in need in our very own community!
Appleton Public Montessori will be the host site to Up with People Junior June 10th-June 14th. The camp performance will be on June 14th, at Kaleidoscope Academy at 6:00pm. The Mile of Music performance is still to be determined. Up with People Junior has partnered with World Relief Fox Valley for our community service project during the camp. The ages for our summer’s performing arts camp are 8 years to 12 years old, and the cost is $225.00 per child.
