- Guitar ensembles
- Jazz theory and ear training
- Improvising classes
- Jam sessions
- Instrumental masterclasses
Camp hours are Monday to Thursday, 9:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m; Friday until 6 p.m.
Faculty concerts are held Monday to Thursday at 3:30–4:30. A final concert for all camp participants to perform will be held on Friday at 3:30 (ending by 6 p.m.). All concerts are free and open to the public, but donations to fund student scholarships will be welcomed at all concerts.
Concerts are held in Kailash Mital Theatre in Southam Hall on the Carleton University campus. Ensembles from the camp will get a chance to perform for family, friends and the general public.
