Museum Youth Camps

MAC camps are based on the concept that young people benefit from hands-on learning experiences. Camp activities stimulate creativity, refine artistic skill, and inspire wonder for the natural world through scientific exploration. Each camp includes time in the galleries with one of our Museum Educators.

Drop-off for camp begins at 8:45am at the Admissions level of the museum.
Early drop-off or late pick-up can be arranged from 8am-4pm at an additional cost of $12 per hour.
