Welcome to
Southern Maine
String Camp

For over 50 years, Southern Maine String Camp has provided string players ages 10-18 with an opportunity to grow as musicians in a non-competitive environment, while enjoying the classic Maine summer camp experience.

It’s time to send in your audition video!

The audition video helps us make sure we place you in the orchestra most appropriate for you. Submit yours today—our staff can’t wait to hear you!

Financial aid is available! All campers with a financial need are welcomed to apply after completing the registration form and the deposit.
