Camping With the Pops

Arts & Culture

This summer, The Pops Orchestra is hosting its 8th annual "Camping With the Pops" program. We are pleased to tag team this event with the Manatee Performing Arts Center's summer program by shifting our camp to a "Pit Orchestra" experience. Our summer campers will provide the live music for their summer campers' production of Mary Poppins Jr. It will be a Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious experience! So, if you know of any middle or high school instrumentalists who would like to take part in this FREE summer camp, send them our way! The link to register is below.  Wait... did I hear you say you'd like to see this production? Mark your calendar for Friday, July 18, at 7:30 p.m. at the Manatee Performing Arts Center! Tickets will be available soon.
