Yeah they do!

Girls Rock! DC is a fabulous local org that uses music education to build self-confidence in girls ages 8-18. The group’s second annual camp session culminates this Saturday, August 15 in a showcase performance at the 9:30 Club at 10:30am. Click here to buy tix online ($10).

More about the group:

Following in the footsteps of girls rock camps across the United States, Girls Rock! DC was founded in October 2007 by an all volunteer collective of DC Metro Area musicians, teachers, artists and community organizers. In August 2008, over 80 volunteers built upon their diverse musical backgrounds, connections to local youth and approaches to grassroots organizing to create a week-long day camp for Washington DC area girls ages 8-18.

Just another reminder – if you feel like something is lacking in the DC arts world…make it happen!
