100 Summer Camp Scholarships for LA kids are LIVE TODAY

With scholarships reserved on a first-come, first-served basis beginning January 17th, the time to get on the PAW list is now!

Performing Arts Workshops, voted BEST summer camp in LA Parent Magazine, is pleased to announce that through a generous donation, 100 scholarships for PAW’s Musical Theater Camp are now available on a first-come, first-served basis!

We are very excited that our donor has stepped up for the 11th year to make the Matching Fund Scholarships happen! Our donor is a Los Angeles community member and arts advocate who wants to make sure that every child in Los Angeles has the opportunity to experience camp. She believes that arts education in schools is essential for a child’s growth and development, and she created this fund so that children can use their summers to build on and enhance what they learned in the classrooms during the school year—in a fun and exciting way! PAW summer camps offer an immersive creative experience that generates a momentum for learning that gets kids excited year after year!

It is our donor’s request that the Matching Fund Scholarships have no conditions or prerequisites, but be offered on a first-come, first-served basis with 25 available at each camp site. Each scholarship provides half of the tuition for any of PAW’S MUSICAL THEATER CAMPS when the parent matches the remaining $395 for two-week sessions, or $210 for one-week sessions.
