Program Overview
Monday, July 30 - Friday August 3
Monday, August 6 - Thursday, August 9
Calling young creative folks! Kids Camp at North House Folk School and the Grand Marais Art Colony are week-long day camps for youth ages 9 to 14 (or entering grades 4-8). As a camper you will try out lots of skills while making new friends and having fun! Kids will be in a small group while they learn from instructors who are knowledgeable and excited to help youth learn about arts and traditional northern crafts.
Camp Schedule:
Families may sign kids up for morning or afternoon camps or both. Kids staying for morning and afternoon camp must bring a bag lunch each day. All kids are encouraged to bring a snack and a water bottle for AM and PM sessions. Kids staying for morning and afternoon camp will have a 1 hour break between classes to each lunch and relax. We encourage kids to bring a book or quiet game for their break and they will have access to outdoor space in good weather to play during lunch break. If you sign your child up for an AM camp at the Art Colony and a PM camp at North House, note that we will walk your child to their second class location with an adult (the two locations are 3 blocks apart).
