What to Expect
A day at Camp Philbrook starts in our studios, but we quickly use the whole museum: art, gardens, etc. to explore what it means to be a creative thinker and maker. Our workshops are geared towards getting messy, working together and making space for every child’s ideas.
Here are a few things to know:
This is a drop-off camp.
Campers need to bring a peanut-free lunch from home that does not require refrigeration.
We have pretzels or Goldfish crackers as morning and afternoon snack built into each camp session. Campers are welcome to bring their own peanut-free snack from home if they would like.
We use the whole museum, which means we spend ample time outside when the weather permits. Please pack a water bottle daily and arrive wearing sunscreen and bug spray.
Your days at Philbrook will be filled with creative energy and fun! Please make sure to dress for mess and outdoor exploration.
