2025 SMART Camp Enrollment is Now Open!
SMART Camp cultivates a child's inner artist by encouraging imagination, creativity, and exploration through various art programs. Art not only awakes the inner artist, but allows a child to practice self-expression through movement, music, painting, and more. At SMART Camp, we believe in creating a safe and fun environment, while fostering social and emotional well-being for all campers. On the last Friday of each two-week session, your artist will have the chance to showcase their creations in a confidence-boosting, Art Show. A snack break and “movement break” are given throughout the day, which includes some time to catch fresh air. We recommend sending your child in play clothes, as things can get messily fun, but a smock will be provided. Lots of learning, fun and social-emotional skill building happens during SMART Camp.*The Theater Production & Performance Workshop takes up the last two slots of the day, so your camper will only choose two programs, including this workshop.
