We know you will gain invaluable information, contacts and enthusiasm to be put toward your future career.

To the Students, Educators, Future Educators and Parents We invite you on a journey – The Southern Experience: Show Choir and Choral Camp! We have had four outstanding years of great shows, friends, and memories and are promising an even bigger event this year. We have put together an amazing week filled with great clinicians, fantastic music and new friends on the beautiful campus of The University of Southern Mississippi in Hattiesburg.

You will have the opportunity to learn more about vocal techniques, dance skills, new music and arts education in a warm, supportive environment.

As students of show choir and choral music, we have secured the biggest and brightest stars for you to work with in a non-competitive atmosphere.

The week will culminate in a spectacular concert on Saturday afternoon at 1 p.m. that is free and open to the public.

Our camp will keep you busy all day, learning from these professionals while the evenings will be filled with special performances. Our on-campus accommodations are excellent, with outstanding supervision.
