The Camp Experience

The Alternative Guitar Summit Camp is a deep dive into the artistry of the instrument. Set within a 100-acre wilderness retreat, the program is built on the idea that music is best learned through total immersion. This gathering offers an opportunity to not only be in close contact with these musical masters, it offers the chance to develop a sense of community that can last a lifetime.

Participants and instructors reside on-site, sharing meals and rehearsal spaces in an environment that removes the traditional barriers of a classroom. Throughout the week, attendees will witness one-of-a-kind performances and collaborations that will be as powerful as any they are ever likely to see. The daily schedule balances technical rigor with creative exploration, utilizing professional facilities like the Moondance Pavilion and the historic Spruce Barn for master classes, workshops, and organized evening jam sessions.

Lodging and All-Inclusive Packages

Registration covers four nights of lodging, all meals, and full access to camp programming. Accommodations at Full Moon Resort range from premium cottages and B&B-style guest rooms to glamping tents and traditional camping sites.
