Spend your summer break with us!

The New Children’s Museum is thrilled to announce we’re now offering camps for kids ages 5–13, including brand-new sessions designed specifically for 11–13-year-olds!

Our camps are project-based and led by professional artist-educators who inspire creativity and collaboration. Young artists will explore individual and group projects through hands-on activities that encourage them to think, play, and create in fun and meaningful ways.

All camps run from 9am to 4pm, Monday through Friday, and include time in our studios to learn new skills, work on projects, and explore the Museum. Don’t miss this incredible opportunity for your child to grow their creativity in an unforgettable summer experience!
