What our organization offers: 
Ages for which our activities are most appropriate: 
Top-tier dance, theater and visual arts instruction, plus all the magic of traditional summer camp. This makes Berkshire us the best of both worlds for girls 7-15! A place where creativity and summer camp meet to nurture girls to become their best selves.

Our Camp Experience:

  • Top-tier instruction, with the freedom, support and encouragement for each girl to explore what interests her.
  • Boundless space for creative exploration and meaningful skill development.
  • A place where girls can be their best selves.

Our Community

Thanks to our small program size, intimate site and high counselor-to-camper ratio (1:3), each girl receives individual attention, learning and care, and feels deeply connected to our diverse and intentionally built community. 

Our passionate and dedicated team of directors have over 50 years of combined camp experience. Each summer, we complement that with a talented staff who are intentionally chosen because they love the arts, embody our philosophy, and are deeply committed to making a difference for our campers.

Our goal each summer is to foster a warm and welcoming sisterhood where girls feel comfortable being their authentic selves, creatively and socially. When she leaves camp, we hope each girl has made deep friendships and has grown in her skills, her independence and her self-confidence.
