CLARKSVILLE, TN – Clarksville Community Theatre (CCT) is proud to announce the launch of its Riverkeeper’s Education Programs, a new series of immersive summer theatre camps designed to spark creativity, storytelling, and performance skills in young artists.
Rooted in imagination and inspired by the spirit of the Cumberland River, these week-long camps invite students to “step aboard the Riverkeeper’s ferry” and explore a world where stories come to life. Each program is tailored to a specific age group, offering developmentally appropriate opportunities for creativity, collaboration, and performance.
