~ Camp Ramayana is a 5 week summer program for children ages 5 and above. Each session culminates in a stage performance by the students of this breathtaking 2000-year old epic.
~ The epic is introduced through story-telling, martial arts, yoga, mask-making, Sanskrit (the language of the epic), poetry, rangoli (floor painting) and creative writing.
~ The camp has been operating for nearly 30 years, with children returning year after year, first attending as junior campers and then later as camp counselors.
~ Each year the campers define the story in their own terms. Some write their own scripts, some redesign props, while others create mini-videos with their own twist on the classic.
