March 30, 2026 – April 3, 2026 / 9am – 4pm
Final Showcase: Friday, April 3rd at 3:30 PM
Something mysterious is happening at the museum — and only our campers can solve it! Join us for a week of creativity, imagination, and fun as young artists become detectives, curators, and talking exhibits. Campers will create their own museum-inspired world through theatre, music, and art, leading up to an original performance of The Great Museum Mystery at the end of the week.
Each day blends creative learning with time to play and explore — including outdoor recess (weather permitting), art-making, games, and movement activities. Campers will develop confidence, teamwork, and storytelling skills while having a blast!
Daily Highlights:
🎭 Theatre & Storytelling – Bring characters and stories to life!
🎨 Visual Art & Design – Create props, sets, and museum exhibits.
🎶 Music & Movement – Add songs and rhythms to the mystery.
🕵️ Problem Solving – Follow clues and decode secrets.
🌳 Outdoor Play – Enjoy daily games and fresh air on the
playground (weather permitting)
