Girls Rock Reno Summer Camp
July 19, 2021 @ 8:00 AM - July 23, 2021 @ 5:00 PM
GIRLS ROCK RENO is an annual music summer camp at The Holland Project for youth ages 9- 17. GRR provides music instruction in vocals, guitar, bass, and drums to youth of all skill levels, supported by valuable workshops in rock history, screen printing and button making, radio production, stage confidence, and more. We strive to promote self-love with programs that foster not only creativity and community-building, but also confidence and empowerment. GRR promotes skills which help guide participants throughout their lives.
Our goal is to counter the underrepresentation of women and people of marginalized gender identities in music, and we are committed to creating a positive, inclusive environment. We welcome all self-identified girls, trans and non-binary youth to participate. The 2019 camp saw sixteen youth participants, 75% of which had no musical experience. In 2020, to ensure the safety of all staff and participants during the pandemic, camp was adapted to an at-home format – Girls Rock Reno Rock-At-Home Summer, a mix of online content, live virtual hang-outs, and guided do-it-yourself projects and activities. GRR 2021 will return July 19 – 23, 2021. The camp will again feature hands-on instruction and mentorship from fantastic women musicians in our community, workshops and skill-building opportunities, guest performances, speakers, and more.
