At Cumbe’s Dance, Drum & Imagination Summer camp, the goal is to tap into children’s amazing capacity for imagination and wonder, while introducing them to the joy and vitality of dance, song, and rhythms of Africa and its Diaspora.  
This intimate camp includes cohorts of 14 students, empowering teachers to properly serve your child. Campers will learn how to work with others, exchange ideas and create a production they are proud to share. At the end of each two-week session, campers and instructors put on a show demonstrating all they’ve done.
