Youth Camps

When school’s out, we’re in! Explore our summer and holiday camps and register your young artist today! Financial Aid is available for most registrants.

Afterschool Arts Enrichment Program

This drop-in arts program series for the Fall and Spring is geared for young artists who are self-motivated and enjoy the creation process as much as the final payoff.

Teen Leadership Program

The Teen Leadership program is for your young artists that have “aged” out of our traditional camps and are looking to transition into staff support and liaisons to the young artists. See if our leadership training and exclusive arts program is a good fit for your budding artist.

Adult and Family Community Classes

Upturn Arts offers drop-in classes for the parents and families of our young artists and the general community. They are offered by our teaching artists on a weekly basis or as featured workshops.
