By -

Get out your pencils and notebooks, find your favorite camp photos ~ 
It’s time to start preparing your story to enter the Camp Story 
Contest for a chance to win free camp!

Every year as the PAW Team gets ready for another exciting season, we love to stop and take a moment to remember and reflect on all of the fun of past seasons of camp! 
We also love to celebrate our campers’ special moments and memories and there is no better way to do this than through your own firsthand storytelling! Plus, who doesn’t love a chance at free stuff – especially free PAW Camp! 

The story can be written by a PAW camper, Mom, Dad, or even Grandma & Grandpa, too!  Your story can be a page or just a few simple paragraphs that range from funny, inspiring, or sweet, to just plain adorable. 


Your story can be…


…Adorable!

“When the big moment came for us to step out of the big black curtains that concealed us, I admit, I was a little scared. But when I looked to my right, I saw my friends next to me. I knew I was okay."                                                                                                                                                                                                              -Luiza, Camper, Age 9


…Exciting!

“…I asked my daughter what part she’d been given, while I distractedly eased the car out of the parking lot and checked for traffic in my side mirror. ‘Mommy, I’m an orphan,” she said. ‘That’s great,’ I said. ‘So I figure dirty, grubby clothes this time?’ ‘Well, kinda. I’m playing Annie.’ ‘What?’ I put my foot on the brake. ‘What? Annie? Like in, the lead?’ ‘Yes,’ she said, grinning.
                                                                                     -Suzanne, Melissa’s Mom, Age 10


…Creative!

“My PAW Song (Sing to the tune of Candy man from Charlie and The Chocolate Factory)
Who can take a Summer (who can take a Summer)
Sprinkle it with cheer (sprinkle it with cheer)
Add singing, dancing, and acting
Then it will appear
PAW Summer Camp
PAW Summer Camp”
-Lindsay, Camper, Age 9


…Inspirational!

“I had a solo, two lines that I still remember to this day. I sang those solo lines and I realized I didn’t want to be a popstar, I want to be a Broadway star. I want to be like Barbra Streisand, Natalie Wood, and Rita Moreno. This camp helped me realize that I want to perform.”
-Lila, Camper, Age 10


 …Or Even Just Plain Fun!

“After the camp ended she told me that she couldn’t wait to go back next summer. A big thanks to the staff for making her summer memorable and fun! She played one of the village girls in beauty and the beast and in my opinion she had perfected the Gaston faint scene ;)”
-Denna, Sienna’s Mom, Age 7

Bring In The New Year With A Top Notch Enrichment Plan For Your Child!

School may still be on Zoom,  but the options for FUN & RECHARGING activities are endless! A new year marks a time for setting new goals, kids entering a new school term, and everyone having a fresh start. While last year was very different than most, our new year can still be symbolic of new beginnings. This new year, it is more important than ever to ensure that you and your children are engaging in fun and recharging experiences to keep your spirits up, to spread joy, and to maintain stamina for school on Zoom. It is the perfect time to relax, to recharge, to have fun with the family, to make happy memories with your family, and to sign your children up for online classes in the subject areas that they love and miss, such as the performing arts! Online After School Classes & Enrichment Many extra-curricular activities are not disappearing, they are simply redesigning the way that they provide enrichment services based on our world’s current needs for social distanc...

After a long year, 2021 has finally arrived! And, along with it, PAW’s Online Winter After School Term is here! While the school day may be filled with vital, intense core content, PAW (and other reputable after school enrichment providers) is happy to help provide online opportunities in the arts and humanities, which are so crucial to a child having a well-rounded education. “Zoom is the great equalizer because you now have so many choices and that is a wonderful opportunity for children” says Cheryl Appleman, president of Performing Arts Workshops. “For example, some class choices might not be available in your school or your community, but now you have a nation’s-worth of classes to select from. We’re based out of Los Angeles, so we have some of the most finely trained artists and teachers on our faculty. They’re passionate about the subjects they teach, and now they can extend their reach and share their knowledge with students across the country. Do you live in a small town with ...

NEVER FEAR… MORE AFTER SCHOOL ON ZOOM IS HERE! Classes Begin October 19th!

By -
By popular demand…we are happy to announce the list of our next session of Online After-School Classes which run from Mid-October to Mid-December!   Performing Arts Workshops’ summer of 2020 showed us that when children participate in interactive Zoom classes in the Arts it energizes and excites them for online learning, setting them up for success! It may seem counter intuitive, but when children are given the chance to participate in fun and uplifting activities through Zoom, it re-energizes them and opens their minds up to learning the important lessons and topics of school on a similar platform and actually counters Zoom Fatigue. Thanks to the requests of our PAW Families for more classes, we are excited to offer an additional session of online after school workshops this Fall and registration is now open to all ! Knowing that our program has helped children become more receptive and comfortable with their academic school studies on the Zoom platform is very rewarding to us. ...
