Campers will explore different art materials and play in a process-focused setting. Campers will have opportunities to play both outside and inside the main studio throughout the day.

Older children can spend hours at our studio maker tables creating art from their own ideas, without instructions or a lesson plan. This program aims to honour their naturally occurring creative spirit by providing a rich variety of materials and tools and standing back and giving campers the freedom and agency to make what and how they want. We believe, that when children are given opportunities to discover and make things on their own, the more original and innovative the art becomes. Glue guns, cardboard cutters, woodworking and sewing are just some of the things used in this creative making focused camp.

*Week long camps enjoy walking field trips to some  wonderful amenities in downtown Guelph  (such as Wolfond Park, City Hall Splash pad, downtown concerts and library).  Daily playtime in the studio (both inside and outside) are highlights of our camp programs.

All our campers will join together at times for some epic arty experiences in our sensory room as well as in the park across the street.
