TRUE COLOURS ART CAMP

Our goal is to create a fun, welcoming, and creative environment where kids can make friends, stay active, and explore hands-on activities.

Our main daily creative activities focus on meaningful, hands-on projects campers can actually use, display, or enjoy at home — fun, tangible creations kids are excited to bring home, not just paper crafts that get forgotten in a backpack.

Registration is limited to 15 campers per week to ensure a safe and supportive environment.
