March Break was a busy time for the students of Dixon Hall Music School. From March 14-18 the Minstrel Foundation sponsored 16 girls to attend Girls Rock Camp, the 5th year of operations for this camp in Toronto and, thanks to the Dixon Hall Music School, its first year in the Regent Park neighborhood. The Girls Rock Camp Toronto is affiliated with an international coalition of camps across Canada, the U.S. and Europe whose shared mission is to empower girls and women using the tools of music education to foster self-esteem and confidence. The week was jam-packed with activities from instrument and band instruction to silk screening band shirts to a recording session and concert! This first collaboration between Dixon Hall Music School and Girls Rock Toronto was a great success. Thanks to all our donors, we can make camps like this available to students who otherwise would not be able to afford the tuition.
