What we do
GRS features Girls Rock Camp Saskatoon (GRCS), a week-long youth program where campers learn an instrument, form a band, and write a song to be performed at a showcase at the end of the week. In addition to technical training, campers take part in music workshops centred on creativity and confidence-building, as well as engaged workshops dealing with gender, social justice, image, identity, and community building. We offer two week-long day camps every summer for ages 8-14.
Our Vision
Girls Rock Saskatoon envisions a world in which gender and racial justice is achieved, youth voices are valued, and there are limitless opportunities for creative expression regardless of gender, race, class, ability, or culture. We envision a world where music education is valued, where power and opportunity are shared, and where creative and powerful spaces are universally accessible. We envision a world where traditionally marginalized voices are equally entitled to, deemed worthy of, and valued and respected in these spaces.
