SUMMER CAMP FOR GRADES 3-9

Mu Explorations is coming back this summer to Saint Paul! Mix and match half-day, week-long camps for elementary schoolers and middle schoolers. If you sign up for both morning and afternoon camps, you’ll have a full day of theater.

Each camp is led by professional theater artists, and through activities and physical games, students will dive into performance strategies and stage skills, learn about the Asian American experience, and have fun along the way!

WHEN: Aug 3-14, 2026

WHERE: HOPE Community Academy, 720 Payne Ave, Saint Paul, MN 55130

CAMP COST: All Mu Explorations camps are offered with an option to Pay As You Are. If additional financial support is needed, please let us know.

HOW CAMP WORKS: Camps are half-days and are divided by elementary school (grades 3-5) and middle school (grades 6-9).

  • Morning camps are 9 am-noon.

  • Afternoon camps are 1-4 pm.

  • If a student signs up for both morning and afternoon in the same session, the day includes a supervised lunch with a Mu staff member.

Elementary School Camps

Middle School Camps


Mu was born out of a need for AAPI representation in American theater, and we represent the Asian American diaspora, honoring our identity as Asian Americans while also respecting our diverse backgrounds and experiences. Our past participants have specifically pointed out the joy of sharing theater with other AAPI budding artists, and for this reason, we will prioritize students who identify as Asian or Asian American for enrollment.

Should you have any questions about this or about Mu Explorations in general, please contact Morgen Chang, programs manager, at morgen@theatermu.org or (651) 789-1012.

Special thanks to the Vilcek Foundation for supporting the 2026 Mu Explorations Summer Camp.
