Pump Up the Jams July 6-10, 2026

What are we exploring?

Get ready to dive into follow the beat of your imaginations! Think: Music + movement + visual rhythm = dynamic expression. "Beat Builders": Make instruments, create a rhythm wall. "Move to the Music": Explore movement games tied to rhythm. "Sound and Color": Paint to music, explore synesthesia. "Musical Theater Mini": Skits and choreography inspired by song. "Finale Jam Session": Big collaborative sound + movement piece. Arts Assembly provides a creative and active space for kids to explore the arts on days that A2 public schools are out. Kids spend the day playfully exploring movement, theater, music and the visual arts. We love collaborative exploration, problem solving, and innovative solutions inspired by creativity. Led by U-M Professors in the Performing Arts, local teachers and artists, Arts Assembly is your downtown arts resource for the whole family.
