Global Arts Camp

A different country is explored each session - this summer we will be "visiting"  Turkey, Brazil and Kenya!

Lesson plans will include an array of activities coordinated with a cultural tour each session.  These cultural tours will contribute to all aspects of a child's inquisitive mind through music, dance, crafts, art and games.  Each session will culminate with an art show of the campers’ goodwill mission.  Each week will include 3 days of level-appropriate swim instruction, followed by free swim time, held at the South Orange Community Pool.  Daily recreation is scheduled to keep campers healthy and active.  Special events, visitors and field trips are scheduled for each session.
