Slots still available for Days in the Arts at Tanglewood
A limited number of slots are still available for Boston residents to attend the Boston Symphony Orchestra's summer program, Days in the Arts at Tanglewood (DARTS)! Days in the Arts at Tanglewood is a five day arts-immersion sleepover program in the Berkshires for kids who are just completing 5th, 6th and 7th grades in Massachusetts. The camp serves a total of 400 students per summer and there are a maximum of only 50 students per week. DARTS students choose a workshop area (instrumental music, visual arts, vocal music, dance, or theater/drama) in which they will focus during the week, but the students will be exposed to and experience activities in all areas of the arts. Tuition is $250 for Boston residents and includes housing, transportation during the program and between Boston and the Berkshires, all meals, tickets and admissions for the week.
To register for DARTS, please visit www.bso.org and download a Boston resident application (located in the Education Section of the site, where there is information about Days in the Arts). Make sure to circle the week(s) you are available, and a DARTS staff member will contact you to place you in a week that we still have availability. Right now, we have the most availability in weeks 2 (July 4-8), 4 (July 18-22), 6 (Aug. 1-5), 7 (Aug. 8-12), and 8 (Aug. 11-15), though slots could become available in all the weeks if we have students who have to drop out at the last minute. We will place students as soon as we have your registration form and deposit. A limited amount of financial assistance is available, and you should contact the DARTS office (darts@bso.org) to request an application.
To receive more information or an application for the program, please contact the DARTS office at the Boston Symphony Orchestra by email at darts@bso.org.
