Community Calendar

For Ages 6 – 16

Join us in Summer 2026 for Camp BCS! When you sign up, your young artists will spend two weeks building community and establishing their own expansive creative toolboxes, all of which will help grow their confidence and offer them new and exciting paths to learning and knowing through arts.

We emphasize the development of a wide variety of skills and offer learning experiences in multiple disciplines of artistic expression so that our campers can present what they’ve learned in a showcase format. We work closely with our Teaching Artists serving as counselors (and the campers themselves!) to develop the material they feel best presenting, and we craft an engaging show to present to their loved ones and BCS Staff at the end of each session. Throughout their time at Camp BCS, students will practice artistic skill building through theater games and exercises, writing, visual arts, movement with music, STEAM workshops, and so much more.

Children ages 6 – 16 are eligible to attend. There are two 2-week sessions of Camp BCS, and each one has a maximum capacity of 45 campers. Campers are organized into smaller groups, or “villages”, organized by age range and grade. Throughout the day, campers move through class rotations with their village and will occasionally overlap with the two other villages for camp-wide programming and activities.

The holidays already are here and your shopping isn’t finished? Or even started? What to give special friends who say they don’t need anything? Church Hill Theatre has an easy and thoughtful suggestion. Consider a 2026 Season Package—with 5 tickets for the price of 4. You get to choose the plays and the dates.

The coming 2026 season opens in March with a Tennessee Williams classic, The Glass Menagerie, and closes in December with A Christmas Carol. In between, there is a great choice of musicals, comedies and more. Consider Between the Lines, an April musical featuring our talented teens, the major June production of Chicago, or the September musical Something’s Afoot, a spoof of British mystery stories. And who could pass on the spooky November show, The Transylvanian Clockworks?

This special $100 package will make a memorable gift and support a cherished local institution. And if you have been very good all through the year, consider treating yourself to an entire season of outstanding shows. This package is available through the CHT office, at 410-556-6003 or online at churchhilltheatre.org.
