STE(A)M Camp

This unique 2-day camp encourages creativity, artistic expression, problem solving and critical thinking in a fun hands-on experience. Scientific experimentation with natural materials throughout the Garden and indoors will focus on design and engineering. Working as teams, campers will build their communication skills while employing their imaginations to solve intriguing challenges. Bring a bag lunch each day and dress for the weather as we will be outside exploring most of the time.

Members $85 | Nonmembers $95  (Please sign in to receive member discount)
