Get tangled up in choose your own adventure with string art, finger knitting, crotchet, scrap fabric weaving, embroidery, knotted bracelets and more! We will read Extra Yarn by Mac Barnett, create community art, head to local parks, play and craft. Yarn bombing, anyone?

Camp Beehive is a crafting summer camp for children ages 4-9 years old.  Each week, immersive crafts have been chosen that will help shape our theme, activities, and adventures. Our program day runs from 8:30 AM- 3 PM and aftercare is available from 3-5:30 PM for an additional fee. 

Camp Beehive has 3 "home" spaces in the Bok Building:  Beehive, Beehive Upstairs (Beehive's new classroom, crafteteria and board game cafe) and The Craftship, artist Steph Kimmel's studio.  We also travel to local parks and spend time on the Bok stoops.
