DIY Maker Camp: Summer 2024

Join us for another great summer of making! We are excited to announce that there will be nine weeks of camp available this summer! Discounts are available when you register for multiple weeks!

We will spend our days making, building, painting, up-cycling, recycling and repurposing! During the three day Maker Camp, participants will learn about sign making and painting, explore DIY projects, up-cycle, recycle and repurpose and even have some time to explore their individual MAKER interests!

Camp is organized and designed by Sara, from Fab Five Design, who is a certified K-12 educator with over 20 years experience! Her recent work was in developing and implementing Makerspaces in both elementary and middle school settings. The entire camp will be thoughtfully designed to meet the creative educational needs of all students–PreK and up! We will be breaking in to groups based on age and ability!  Camp is limited to 15 kids per week.

Camps will be lead throughout the summer by Miss Brandy and Mrs. K. They will be supported by local high schoolers. 

Camp will start at 9:00 a.m. Campers will break for a 1/2 hour lunch (please bring your own!) and then have some free time outside (weather permitting). We will walk across the street to the pavilion area to have lunch and play. We will return to the gallery at 1:00 and camp will end at 3:00 p.m.
