SUMMER CAMPS 2026
Join us for a week of exciting makering activities and fun during SUMMER! We have multiple weeks available with a variety of themes and activities. We kick-off each day with a morning maker project, followed by a brief mid-morning break to relax or jump on the trampoline, and then a cooking project. At lunchtime, we venture to one of the nearby parks for a picnic and some physical activity! The afternoon session may continue with the morning project or introduce a new one. We end the afternoon by cleaning up the Makerspaces and reflecting on the day.
Each Summer camp includes ambitious, age-appropriate, and fun maker projects, which could include crafts, art, gardening, cooking, design, science, music, life skills, sewing, carpentry, or a combination of these. Each project incorporates the safe use of various tools, integrates upcycled materials through a range of creative techniques, and promotes the development of life skills. All projects are demonstrated using best practices, while individual creativity is celebrated.
The details:
Summer camps run Monday through Friday, from 9am - 3:30pm. Aftercare is available until 4pm each day—be sure to select this option at checkout.
