Overview

Mission

Girls Rock Sacramento helps youth build self esteem through music education and performance collaboration empowerment a supportive community of peers and mentors and the development of leadership skills.

What it reported doing in 2025

G.I.R.L.S. Rock Sacramento is much more than an arts and music education summer camp. We believe that creativity positivity inclusivity and community are key elements of personal and collective empowerment and positive social change. Our summer day camps are week-long programs for young people ages 8-17. Campers attend instrument lessons rehearse in a band collaboratively write an original song participate in daily music and empowerment-related workshops and activities and perform with their bands at a live weekend showcase.
