a musical adventure for the whole family

Jam Camp is a three to five day musical adventure where Jam Campers camp with our multi talented crew of facilitators and explore music that celebrates life, nature, and cultural diversity. From African drumming to Celtic fiddle, Jam Camp encourages families to use their instruments to jam with other musicians and to create new, original songs. Come join the fun!

Jam Camp is hosted by Jam Camp Society, a registered non-profit organization. Camps are held primarily in British Columbia, Canada.
