Summer Camp Season (Age Groups 4-12)
THEME: Changes Weekly
WHEN: May 22 – Aug 11 (12 weeks of weekly camps) | 9:00 am – 3:00 pm
AGE GROUPS: 4-12
DESCRIPTION: It’s that time of year for another fun-filled fantastic summer camp season. For 2023, there are 12 individual weeks of camp with themes to be determined by our teaching artists. Each week, our young artists will be exposed daily to our four traditional disciplines of Visual Arts, Music, Theater and Dance. Classes are arranged by relevant age groups and rotate through the day with breakfast, lunch and snacks provided.
Each Friday features a field trip to an artistic, cultural, or nature location to expose our young artists to the beauty, culture, and community of New Orleans and Southeast Louisiana.
We will continue our partnership with Whole Village Art Therapy and are excited to meet our potential new placement in the coming months.
