School Daze Camps at Artscope are a great way for kids to spend their days when school is out. Kids will make fabulous art projects, explore Tower Grove Park, play games, sing songs and make new friends.
Camps are for kids ages 5 to 11. Each camp has a different theme. At Cabin Fever Camp, campers will party like it's 1776! They'll learn about homesteading, log cabins, and what life was like before the internet.
Camps run from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. with before and after-care available beginning at 7:30 a.m. through 6 p.m. Cost for camp is $40 with additional for before or after-care.
