BACK AGAIN THIS YEAR! ART & NATURE CAMP. This summer day camp gives kids the opportunity to create art and explore nature! Each day will include engaging art projects and outdoor play and discovery, combining creativity, games and hands-on exploration for a memorable week of summer fun. We create a welcoming atmosphere where campers connect with each other, their own creativity, and the natural world. Groups will spend half of the day in the "art" portion of the program and then switch to the "nature" portion for the other half of the day. There will be some combined activities as an entire group. We will also incorporate some guest art instructors.
Summer Art & Nature Camp will consist of (2) one-week sessions to choose from over the course of the summer.
Weeks 1 & 2 will be Art & Nature Camp for incoming grades 1-5. Due to limited availability, we are limiting art and nature camp to only one week per camper.
In addition, there will be one session of Art Camp with Katie and two guest art instructors. This session of Art Camp will be for incoming grades 5-9.
Weeks are grouped based on incoming grade level for the 2026-27 school year. All sessions will be five days, Monday through Friday, from 9am to 3pm. Cost is $250 per week-long session. Scholarships are available, including the Richard Ferrier Scholarship (click link for application) for Bowdoinham residents 8-18 years old.
