Camp Bluegrass is a one-week residential picking camp for bluegrass musicians. It is held each July at South Plains College in Levelland, Texas located 30 miles West of Lubbock. Campers stay in dorms on campus or in conveniently located RV sites. Motels are also available in town. Food service is provided in the SPC cafeteria.

Our speciality is quality teaching and small classes in state of the art facilities. The faculty includes some of the best instructors anywhere. Several SPC teachers are on the staff. Classes are held in the Commercial Music building with nightly faculty concerts in the Tom T. Hall Production Studio.

Over half of our students return every year. Come join the family.
