Previous MomentSummer Steps with Step Afrika! returns, making a new home at Arena Stage
The return of Summer Steps with Step Afrika! marked the official launch of Step Afrika!’s 30th Anniversary Season! Making its Arena Stage debut, the 2023 camp served students from across the DMV, showcasing the connection between stepping and academic achievement and inspiring them to aspire toward higher education. The culminating Step Show hosted a rousing audience of 230 friends and family members, and featured a performance from our teaching assistants of Dem Raider Boyz Step Squad!
“This was my daughter’s first year participating with Summer Steps. She said she had a blast and wanted to do it again. She expressed that if she could only do one camp next summer, it would be this one. Thank you for providing space for children to explore their gifts and talents, learn discipline, and have fun!”
– Summer Steps Parent, 2023
