Performing Arts
Kinhaven
Weston is home to Kinhaven , the celebrated , residential , summer music camp . Kinhaven was Founded in 1952 by the groundbreaking music educators David and Dorothy Dushkin , who studied under the legendary composition teacher , Nadia Boulanger , in Paris in the 1920s . Today , Kinhaven offers programs and workshops in chamber music , orchestra , and piano for youth and adults . The nurturing and supportive nature of the program results in an environment that fosters true musical collaboration . A diverse community of mutually-supportive musicians lift each other up through the process of shared learning , enabling symbiotic creative growth throughout the artistic process . Kinhaven ’ s yearly Kinhaven Concert series is held in Weston , and the concerts are also streamed live through their “ Kinhaven Live !” online streaming platform . Throughout the summer numerous faculty and student concerts are held during the “ Senior ” and “ Junior ” sessions , both at the on-campus Concert Hall and at various other Southern Vermont locations .
