Make Your Own History Camp for Kids Session: Crafts and Trades

-

SECOND SESSION ADDED! AUGUST 16-20. AGES 6-12

The 1/2 day morning program runs from Monday, July 12 – Friday 16, 2021.

Create, Explore and Enrich at the Wilton Historical Society

Make Your Own History summer camp is a vibrant opportunity for kids to create and explore Connecticut’s rich history of craftsmanship and innovation.  Through dynamic, history-based activities, kids will learn firsthand about artistry and ingenuity – and come home with an authentic experience and their own “masterpieces”.

The camp is limited to 12 campers, with activities lead by education professionals.  This small group structure provides one-on-one instruction in a safe, relaxed environment where kids can spark their imaginations and have fun with friends.

Kids will learn about Connecticut’s rich history of craftsmanship, including apothecary, bookbinding, weaving and dying.  Your child’s (or grandchild’s) mornings will be filled with wonder, learning, arts & crafts, and a simple snack inspired by the day’s project.

Covid safety guidelines will be followed.  Weather permitting, we will meet outside under a tent or in our well ventilated Abbott Barn.

Suggested for kids ages 6-12.  Limited to 12 participants. Mon. – Fri. 9:30 – 12:30

Per session: Members: $250; Non-members $300
