Dear Families:
Indigo Nature Arts is in its 12th year! We are excited to invite your children back and cannot wait to meet our new campers. Summer 2023 has special guests to share their passions with the kids! We have also opened a second week of Cooking Camp for the newbies and we have our yearly Culinary Camp for the older kids. Our longtime running magical Faeries and Gnome camp (12 years!) returns along with Raji Malik’s Music Jam Camp! We have also added an entire week devoted to ART, with special guests. We also have an awesome camp planned for kids who enjoy learning how to take care of the body and mind! With poetry, art, music, and healthy snacks included, we will concoct lavender oil, make enriching bath salts, craft soaps, dip candles, and more! This unique camp offers lifelong practices.
Our registration is open!
We look forward to providing a safe, loving, and creative space this summer! AND…we have 6 NEW CIT’s joining camp. They are our 'aging out of camp-campers' and will be in a training program this summer with us. They are eager to help and provide your children with a fun and happy experience!
Our camps provide time to play, relax and enjoy the summer days. Kids are encouraged to use their imagination and share in making our camp days memorable.
