Green Art Labs
Create with reusable materials. Your child will express their creativity and have fun experimenting in the Green Art Lab with artist and art teacher, Joan Green. This free-form class brings out the unique expression in each of us. We'll use repurposable materials, treasures saved from the land fill…turned into amazing, one-of-a-kind creations by you – inventor, scientist, artist, environmentalist.

Brick Builders
Come and be inspired. Create and engage in Lego challenges, creative free play and games. Use Legos in ways you never imagined. Unlimited possibilities, endless fun!

Dig Down Deep Gardening
Dig Down Deep (D3) Garden Educators are outdoor educators who passionately share their love of the earth, sunshine and the harvest of delicious nutritious fruits from a garden you have grown yourselves. During Spring Camp, Dig Down Deep Garden Educator Mindy Swanson will lead activities to explore environmental and food related subjects including natural building, more detailed plant identification, construction and garden maintenance, weed management, cooking & habitat explorations. Each day students will sample garden produce.
