Amplify Sleepaway Camp
Grades 6th–12th | Girls + Gender-Expansive Teens
2,4,6-week overnight sessions · June–August 2025
You know that version of you that’s a little louder, weirder, more creative, more yourself? She lives here. Amplify is a feminist, creative sleepaway camp in the California mountains made for girls and gender-diverse teens who are ready to take up space, make noise, and do something unforgettable.
Choose your major:
- Rock Band
- Film
- Visual Arts
- Theater
You’ll spend two+ weeks building skills, confidence, and a community of creative weirdos who get you. Daily life at Amplify includes hands-on creative sessions, meaningful mentorship, beach trips, karaoke nights, bonfires, and the kind of conversations that stick with you all year. You’ll also have downtime for journaling, dancing, deep convos, and, of course, band practice or art jams.
We’re not interested in perfection. We care about passion, curiosity, and giving you the tools to express who you are and who you’re becoming — whether you’re shy, loud, punk, poetic, awkward, hilarious, or all of the above.
Campers fly in from all over the world (we offer gate-to-gate airport pickup + all bedding included). You just bring your spark. We’ll bring the rest.
Sound like your people?
