Summer Camps
We provide the creative spark and let children's imaginations do the rest. We combine art with real-world problem-solving activities for a one-of-a-kind experience. The fun and creative environment allows kids to use their ingenuity in new ways and fosters the development of important life skills. Our camps are a great way to spend the summer and holidays when school's out.

In-Person Camps
At our in-person camps, the number of campers will be restricted, so that we can ensure kids are able to keep a safe distance from each other. This means spaces are limited!

Monsters and Myths
Unleashing Creativity through Legends and Lore
From sea creatures of the deep to phoenixes in the sky, every society has its monsters and myths. We’ll tell their stories through paintings, sculptures and other works of art. These legends may inspire awe, curiosity or surprise, but they all inspire our imaginations! Kids experiment with different art techniques using Crayola® supplies to bring their ideas to life.
