Ingenuity Camp!
Be a part of an exciting summer STEAM camp that trains your student’s brain to think creatively! Participants work in teams to write, design, and build a creative solution to an open-ended problem. Camp activities foster resilience, divergent thinking, risk taking, and collaboration in an atmosphere that rewards thinking “outside the box!” Daily workshops + challenges = loads of fun and creativity! Teams perform their solutions at a Friday Family Showcase!

2026 Camp Theme:
This year’s camp theme is “The Seriously Silly Museum” 🏛️🤣! Students will create a playful performance about a museum filled with ridiculous exhibits, where creativity takes center stage and unexpected problems lead to imaginative solutions. They’ll think “outside the box” while exploring challenges involving building, creativity, technology, and problem-solving. 🎭✨
