CAROLINAS MUSIC & ARTS CONSERVATORY

WHAT IS CONSERVATORY?

During the summer, The Carolinas Music & Arts Department hosts a summer conservatory program at Camp Walter Johnson in Denton, North Carolina. At this program, students develop skills and talents to be used for worship at their home church. In addition to the high quality and intensive instruction we offer during our summer, we have devotions and Bible study regularly. Our ultimate goal during the summer is to lead our people to a deep relationship with Christ.
