Campers may attend as many sessions as they like- some join us for the whole summer, others pick and choose those they will particularly enjoy.
Session 1: Arts and Science
July 2-3, July 6-10 2026
Price TBA *8 days
Blending creativity and curiosity. Campers are invited to explore both the arts and sciences through hands-on, sensory-rich experiences. Campers will dive into indoor and outdoor activities including tie-dye, jewelry making, clay sculpting, and painting on canvas, creating unique pieces to take home and treasure. They’ll also explore music, drumming, dance, and theater while learning to appreciate the beauty all around them. Alongside the arts, campers will tap into their imaginations and all five senses—sight, sound, touch, taste, and smell—through exciting science experiments, simple magic tricks, and creative projects. From crafting sensory and calming tools to engaging in imaginative journeys, this camp offers a dynamic blend of artistic expression and scientific discovery.
Please note that this camp starts on Wednesday July 2nd!
