The maker movement is here to stay. Campers will harness their creativity and problem solving skills as they generate ideas and tap into their inner inventor during this week of making!

Can you really make an instrument out of a can? Why, yes you can! Campers will take over The Forge, our makerspace, and will work with Forge Facilitators to explore a variety of processes and learn how to use new tools. Projects will include woodworking, sewing, electronics and more. Campers should come ready to prototype, test and, most importantly, have fun!

Warning: your camper may start collecting scrap items from around the house. It’s all part of the creative reuse process!

Waitlist Procedure

Summer camps are popular and will sell out. If the camp you would like to attend is sold out, please click here to be added to the waitlist. If a camp spot opens, we will first email all Science Museum members on the waitlist at the same time. If the spot remains open after 24 hours, we will email the rest of the waitlist. We will do this any time a spot opens in a camp.
