About This Camp

At BAX, we foster creativity and encourage playful exploration in a positive and nurturing environment. Our Summer Arts Program (SAP) draws from our year-round education programs to provide young artists with opportunities to explore different forms of mixed media art and performance around a specific themed week thoughtfully designed for active and fun engagement. Arts Specialists teach daily workshops, while a well-trained, creative staff supports a healthy balance of fun indoor (at the BAX Building in spacious studios) and outdoor (at the Old Stone House in Washington Park/JJ Byrne Playground) play, performance, and art-making activities. At the end of each week, families are sent photos/videos with descriptions of the weekly activities and culminating shares.

NanoBAXers (entering K-2nd grade) explore a variety of performing arts disciplines, with a different discipline workshop each day, and engage in dynamic visual art workshops that build over the course of the week. The Nano staff members are selected for their understanding of the unique needs of our youngest artists, and special attention is paid to community building and collaboration in the daily schedule of activities, games, and time for small group play. On Thursdays, the Nano’s host the Megas and their families for a celebration of that week’s exploratory theme and Gallery sharing of their visual art.

This week's camp is called MAPPING CONSTELLATIONS: Launch into the magic of the night sky through galaxy-inspired art-making, creative movement, cosmic music, and stellar storytelling. Imagine celestial adventures, chart new star paths, and weave connections between our world and the unknown. Grab your spacesuits and prepare for lift off!
