Title Description
MJCCA Performing Arts Camps
Marcus Jewish Community Center of Atlanta (MJCCA)
At MJCCA Performing Arts Camps, fun, learning, and the thrill of live performance take center stage. The Lynne & Howard Halpern Drama Camp is a two-week theatrical extravaganza through which campers will experience every element of the theater—from acting and movement to music and choreography—all while rehearsing for their production of a major musical. The show will be performed for camper family members on the second Friday of the drama camp session. For the first time, we are excited to partner with The Weber School, offering our Drama Camp and new Set & Lighting Design Camp at their new Tzadik Performing Arts Center.

CURSIVE HANDWRITING + DRAWING AMERICAN HISTORY
Foundations Classical Academy
In this live online course, we improve our print and cursive handwriting through reading and writing about people and events from American history as well as drawing them. Why drawing? Drawing develops some of the same muscle groups used for handwriting. It's also lots of fun! Recommended for ages 11-18. An ADULT SECTION is also available (meeting time is different. It will start at 9:30 AM PST and end at 10:30 AM PST).
ADAPTED CLASSICS: The Iliad, The Odyssey, and Greek History (online camp in the liberal arts)
Foundations Classical Academy
The purpose of this live ONLINE course is to spark pre-teen/early teenage students' interest in reading classic books and to teach them to engage in Socratic discussion about themes, characters, plot, etc. We will also focus on history related to the stories. Our summer 2025 readings are selections from Homer’s The Iliad and The Odyssey. The cost is $150 for 22.5 hours of instruction June 16-Aug. 13, 2025.
