Community Partnership with Chamberlain Ballet – We are Stronger Together.

The partnership between the ArtCentre of Plano and Chamberlain Ballet helps make JumpStart for Arts a stronger, richer experience for every camper.

Founded in Plano in 1984, Chamberlain Ballet is a long-standing nonprofit arts organization known for its commitment to high-quality performance, arts education, and community outreach across North Texas.

Together, the ArtCentre and Chamberlain Ballet bring their unique expertise, staff, and creative leadership to camp—expanding what the program can offer and deepening its impact for Plano children and families.

*JumpStart is offered at no cost to the camper, however we do ask that you are respectful of the time and energy that is spent setting up for each class and camp and only sign up if you are able and committed to attending the full week of classes.

**Our funding from the City of Plano requires that children attending Title 1 schools are given priority to attend the summer camp.
