Ditch the same old summer routine this year and consider a summer program in New York. Designed for teens of all ages, these programs offer a multitude of options for every interest and learning style. Whether you opt for a lively city or tranquil college campus, there’s something for you.
Sharpen your academic skills and check out programs focused on in-demand areas like coding, STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math), creative writing, healthcare, architecture, international art, digital music production, codebreaking, business and entrepreneurship, and so much more, guided and mentored by experienced instructors.
Love the arts? Take a summer visual arts program or camp in painting, sculpting, photography, or filmmaking. Or strut into the spotlight on stage with a performing arts program in music, dance, or acting. Try your hand at screenwriting or playwriting — or explore different vocal performance styles like a capella and jazz, to the blues, soul or R&B.
Summer programs in New York include more than traditional academics and the arts. Explore unique programs in cooking and fashion design, learning from industry professionals and finding new ways to be creative. Feeling adventurous? Urban adventure camps offer a fun twist on summer exploration. Hike part of the Appalachian trail, kayak or canoe on the Chesapeake Bay Gateways and Watertrails Network, or go horseback riding in the Hudson River Valley.
Whether you prefer a day program where you commute or an overnight program for a more immersive experience, there’s something waiting for you to help you expand your knowledge, develop your talents, and create lasting memories.
