Girls Rock! Indianapolis

Services Offered

Skills & Teaching Methods

Girls Rock! Indy camp is a day camp for girls, non-binary, and trans youth ages 9-16. Campers attend a week-long crash course in instrument instruction, songwriting, and musical collaboration as well as interactive workshops and lessons focused on building confidence, personal empowerment, and leadership skills through the lens of music education.

Camp culminates with a Saturday Showcase where campers perform the original songs that they created throughout the week. Campers do not need to have any prior music experience, and instruments will be provided. This year we will also be offering an audio production track. It is open to campers entering 7th grade (or older).

Girls Rock! Indianapolis empowers youth and women, creating gender equity through mentoring and music education. We host an annual summer camp for youth ages 9-16, as well as other programs throughout the year, focused on self-esteem and self-expression through music.

We are a proud member of the global Girls Rock Camp Alliance. Girls Rock! Indianapolis is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization.
