About

The M2 Summer Music Camp is an immersive music summer program designed to give children and teens of all musical backgrounds the experience of learing music and playing an instrument. Students will be mentored by actively performing musicians and artists who will will prepare them for their musical showcase at the 2025 Buellton in the Park Festival. The program fosters a sense of responsibility, teamwork, and stage skills in our students. The ultimate goal of M2 is not only to improve a student’s musical literacy and performance skills, but also to develop organizational and interpersonal skills and knowledge which can then be applied in their everyday lives. 

The learning elements of this program are uniquely designed to fit the skills, abilities, and interests of each individual student. Students do not need to have any prior musical experience, and will learn the basics of reading music, playing musical instruments individually and in groups, and have the opportunity to explore other performance disciplines like dance, theater, and creative writing. They will also have access to one on one mentoring and private instruction with our teaching artists that they will be matched with throughout the week.

The final public showcase will take place at the 2025 Buellton in the Park Festival at River View Park alongside our faculty, students from our M2 Piano Intensive Program, and other professional acts. The festival will welcome vendors, food, include a wine and beer garden, and feature many local and internationally acclaimed artists. 

The 2025 Buellton in the Park Festival will take place on Saturday, July 19th, from 12-4:30pm.
