Welcome to French Creek Art Camp!
YMCA Art Camps
Art is all about being open and receptive to the world- inside and out. French Creek Art Camp helps kids expand their creativity and ideas through an interactive and engaging curriculum that varies week to week. We aim to expose our campers to different art mediums and encourage them to think outside the box!
Not only are kids guaranteed to learn something new and make lifelong memories, but will grow in Spirit, Mind, and Body due to our intentional focus on Character Development. Our trained staff use the YMCA Core Values: Caring, Fairness, Honesty, Respect, Responsibility, Teamwork- as guides to show our campers how to be leaders and lifelong learners. We teach kids how to Play with Purpose!
Ages
Open to kids 5-12 years of age, who have completed kindergarten.
Scholarships
We provide needs-based scholarships to make camp more affordable. We take several factors - annual income, the number of adults in your home, and the number of dependents - and use them to determine your fee. Download our financial assistance application here.
