The Montana Actors’ Theatre believes that artistic and creative experiences for youth are essential to the health and vitality of our community. For the past 20+ years, thousands of children in Havre and along the Hi-Line have participated in our youth programs.

Summer KidsMAT Sessions

 
KidsMAT summer camps are a unique performing arts experience for children ages 6-13. This year, we are partnering with the HELP Committee of the Boys and Girls Club of the Hi-line to bring a new outlook to our program which will use theatre and creative expression to help support substance misuse prevention. Youth will explore through the Boy & Girls Clubs of America evidence-based programs designed to help young people develop healthy decision-making attitudes and skills, along with emotional identification, emotional regulation, and positive mental health. Youth will also explore storytelling, performance, and creative collaboration, in a theatre environment complete with a performance! This approach will help youth build identity, confidence, self-worth, and the skills to manage emotions as well as theatre, and acting skills. And have some plain old fun!
