Calling all teens with an interest in acting, writing or film! Join us at camp and on tour as we create an original script for a short movie, then film it together on location in the mountains of North Wales!

Centauri Summer Arts Camp has been offering international arts tours for campers aged 13-18 for the past 16 years. We’ve toured theatre shows, taken art classes and attended writing retreats... but we have never offered a tour for filmmakers, actors AND writers... until now!

Part One... At Camp!

Join us for an 8 day program to write and design your film.

 

Part Two... On Tour!

Some tour Highlights...
Explore the spectacular castles of North Wales
Ride on the UK’s longest Aerial Cable Car
Journey through the stunning mountain passes of Snowdonia
Watch a Punch ‘n’ Judy Show on the beach at Llandudno
Through storytelling and sightseeing, immerse yourself in a new culture
Ascend Mount Snowdon by railway... then WALK back down!
Live for five days in a 16th century Prime Minister’s residence
Explore the lovely seaside village of Criccieth with your friends
Meet local youth, and learn some Welsh
and of course...
Make a short film, on location in Wales!

What do our campers gain from an experience like this? Arts skills and a terrific addition to their resume - that’s certain. However, our tours offer so much more. We’ll see castles, Neolithic ruins, an Edwardian seaside town, glorious cliff top views, majestic mountains and ancient villages. We teach our young people how to travel safely, and help them develop life skills as they cook their own meals and immerse themselves in another culture. Our tours are run like ‘Centauri on the road’ with careful attention to safety and a strong sense of community and we have been offering them for 16 years!

 

Join us for an Information Meeting in Toronto!
When? 1pm, Saturday 12 November 2011
Where? Baby Point Clubhouse in West Toronto
(71 Baby Point Rd, close by Annette/Jane)
Please call to RSVP if you would like to attend. If you live too far away to join us, we would be happy to answer all your questions over the phone.
