Full Two-Week Camp: Campers explore the history of the 1950s to 1990s through the lens of our popular culture. How did the music of Motown define a generation? What movies accurately portray American life at the time? How did art express feelings against war and the government? With trips to the American History Museum, Portrait Gallery, and the African American History and Culture Museum, campers dive into a pivotal era of history and investigate its reflection music, movies, and art. A sock hop, a visit to a drive-in movie, a student protest, and a music video countdown are among the activities that bring the period to life.
