ArtHaus 5 Summer Camps are full-day creative camps for children ages 5 and up. The program combines art, crafts, pottery, cooking, baking, digital art, design, storytelling, sculpture, and mixed media. Campers enroll by weekly theme and age group, so families can choose a camp that matches a child’s interests and readiness level.
The camp atmosphere is hands-on and project-based. Younger campers ages 5–7 can explore Jr. Art & Crafts themes such as ocean creatures, animals, tiny houses, fantasy creatures, food art, nature, architecture, and around-the-world art. Older campers can choose more detailed projects such as worldbuilding, creature design, digital art and animation, cooking and baking, toy design, board game creation, pottery, jewelry, anime and manga, and portfolio-focused art.
The program works well for kids who like making things with their hands. Some campers may love drawing and painting. Others may prefer clay, cooking, design, digital tools, or three-dimensional projects. The schedule gives children a full studio day, which is best for campers who can focus, follow instructions, and enjoy a longer creative block.
ArtHaus 5 is especially appealing for imaginative children who want their summer camp to end with real creations they can bring home.

ArtHaus 5 Summer Camps are day camps. Campers attend during the scheduled studio day and return home afterward. No overnight lodging, cabins, dorm rooms, hotel stays, or residential supervision are included.
Most camps run Monday through Friday from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM. One holiday-week session runs Monday through Thursday. Drop-off begins at 8:50 AM, and pick-up is at 3:00 PM. A 10-minute grace period is available until 3:10 PM. Late pick-up after that time is charged by the minute.
The camp takes place in an art studio setting. Campers spend the day working with materials, tools, art supplies, clay, digital devices, cooking projects, or theme-based creative activities, depending on the selected camp. The format is not a general recreation camp. It is a focused creative studio day with structured projects and instructor guidance.
Campers should bring a healthy lunch, a snack, and a water bottle. Food is not listed as provided during the regular camp day.
Cooking and baking camps include hands-on food preparation as part of the activity program. Campers may make items such as pizza, muffins, brownies, cookies, scones, cupcakes, pasta, sandwiches, tacos, or other recipes depending on the selected week. These food projects are part of the learning experience and should not be treated as a guaranteed daily meal service.
Families should list food allergies in the “Food Allergy” section of the enrollment forms. For cooking camps, families with food allergies should check in advance, because recipes cannot be modified during camp.
ArtHaus 5 Summer Camps are built around weekly creative worlds. One week might feel like an ocean art studio. Another might turn into a miniature architecture lab, a pottery workshop, a cooking classroom, a manga studio, or a toy design space. Campers do not just hear about art. They make things every day.
The strongest tradition is the take-home project. Campers work with real materials, learn techniques step by step, and finish the week with objects they created themselves. That might mean a clay planter, a handmade game, a tiny house, a painted creature, an animated character, a jewelry collection, a board game prototype, or a food-inspired artwork.
Younger campers get playful, age-appropriate projects that build fine motor skills, confidence, and imagination. Older campers get more detailed concepts, including storytelling, product design, architecture modeling, digital tools, resin casting, mold-making, and portfolio-style work.
The camp culture encourages imagination, process, and pride. Kids leave with more than a memory. They leave with proof that they made something real.
ArtHaus 5 Summer Camps give campers a wide menu of creative experiences. Younger artists work on Jr. Art & Crafts themes that may include sea creatures, animals, food art, fantasy creatures, nature, architecture, tiny houses, and cultural art projects. These camps use kid-friendly materials such as paint, collage, clay, mixed media, textured supplies, and simple construction materials.
Older campers can choose more specialized themes. World Building & Creature Design focuses on original characters, fantasy creatures, storytelling, diorama art, drawing, painting, clay sculpture, and 3D environments. Digital Art Camp uses Procreate on iPads and introduces character design, landscapes, layers, color, shading, texture, and beginner-friendly animation. Cooking and Baking Camps teach step-by-step recipes from scratch. Pottery camps introduce earth clay, polymer clay, glazes, acrylic paints, hand-building, shaping, detailing, and how kiln firing works.
Design-focused camps include toy design, mystery boxes, board games, jewelry, tiny houses, architecture, anime and manga, and portfolio projects. The variety makes the program suitable for kids who want to create with their hands, tell stories, design objects, or experiment with different media.
