Step into Tinkering, a creative week inventing, and exploring art with recycled materials! Campers will use their hands to design imaginative projects from everyday objects like cardboard, plastic, fabric scraps, and more. Letโ€™s get ready to get messy, inventive, and have fun discovering what we can make from the world around us!

Please note: Projects will be available for pickup at the J a few weeks after the completion of camp.
