2024 Camp is in the books!
Our 26th year of gathering is now in the rear view mirror and we look ahead towards year #27 in 2025!
Thanks to these marvelous and world-class instructors for an unforgettable week this past July in the Connecticut Berkshires:
Susan Cattaneo • Steve Seskin • Abbie Gardner • Reggie Harris • Sloan Wainwright • Harold Payne • Vito Petroccitto • Mark Dann • Julie Snow • Glen Roethel • Sue Riley • yours truly
We’ve come a long way since our first camp in 1999 when founder Penny Nichols brought her dream to life and lit a candle that’s still burning brightly today. We’ve assembled every year since then to reconnect, collaborate, celebrate, and learn from and about one another and the world through the lenses of songwriting, creativity, and humanity. We do this by presenting the finest songwriters we know who also happen to be great, generous, fun, and humble communicators of this craft we hold so highly. We offer all-levels classes, coffeehouses, concerts, song circles, and spontaneous collaborations, and we’ve collectively discovered how meaningful and enriching our time together is. Every gathering has been special in one way or another, and 2024 (nestled in 400 wooded acres, a lake, farm-to-table organic food, and more) gave us opportunity to remember and celebrate our journey, both as campers and as a community.
Sound good to you? We’re counting the days.
