BRIEF CAMP DESCRIPTION: Gray Barker Young Liars Camp will focus on creative storytelling, performance, and becoming a champion "Liar". The day camp will celebrate Gray Barker's (of Men in Black fame) salesmanship and his ability to embellish the "facts" of a mundane situation to pique the public's interest. Behind the curtain Barker was the ultimate story manipulator and left a legacy of unexplained phenomena embedded in the American psyche. Campers will be mentored in the art and craft of storytelling, they will draw upon local histories to transform those stories, in true Gray Barker style, in the creation of their own epic lies.
