Girls Rock Philly is a civic and social organization based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, that runs a week-long summer day camp for girls aged 9 to 17. The program is led entirely by female instructors and band coaches, and participants learn to play musical instruments, write songs, produce band merchandise, and explore roles in rock music, fostering community and representation for girls, women, and gender-non-conforming individuals. The camp is open to participants from anywhere, but it does not provide lodging or transportation, so attendees must arrange their own, reflecting its status as a local, activity-based initiative rather than an overnight program. The organization operates within the broader context of youth-focused arts and empowerment programs, positioned in the civic and social sector and rooted in a mission to build an intergenerational community through music in the city of Philadelphia.
