Join us for ACU’s All-State Choir Camp, June 25-28, 2025! Our camp offers high school students the tools and experiences they need to be successful in the TMEA All-State Choir audition process. Our camp will focus on all aspects of choral musicianship, including leadership, service, community-building, and being a well-rounded singer.
Our exceptional staff makes Choir Camp both challenging and fun. We try to strike a balance between work and play, learning the TMEA music and learning to love music for its own sake. We hope you can join us!
