Let the Summer Fun BEGIN!
Making Art Fun All Summer Long!
Each week our camp takes a deep dive into a different theme to teach our kids about the wonderful world we live in. From Rainforests to Oceans, Bugs to Pirates, our arts based camp is designed to introduce campers to the tools that help them explore the reaches of their imagination!
Our camp days are broken up with indoor time where much of our artmaking activities happen, and outdoor-action time at the large lawn outside our classroom. With activities for everyone, your camper will join in dance parties, group sing-alongs, group games, and more!
