Creativity Camp: Wonderland Of Creativity is Next Week
From the Jul 1, 2025 e-Edition
Calling all parents and grandparents! Are you looking for an exciting adventure for your elementary or middle schooler to do during these last few days of summer break?
Carroll Arts, Inc. presents Creativity Camp: The Wonderland of Creativity. It is a week-long deep dive into the arts with a twist this year, it is Wonderland-themed. From Pre-K to eighth grade, all are welcome to attend.
Carroll Arts chose this theme because we believe there is no limit to what you can imagine when you put your mind to it.
The goal during camp is to inspire creativity in your little ones through art, drama, music and creative writing. This year’s camp will be Monday-Friday, July 7-11, 2025 from 1-4 p.m. daily at the First Cumberland Presbyterian Church in McKenzie.
Educators for this exciting week are: Dana Wyatt for Art, Joanna Turner for Music, Marlene Kreuter for Creative Writing, and Glynda Rich and Denise Sam for Drama.
A performance or “graduation” will be held on Friday, July 11 at 3 p.m. for students to show what they learned during the week. Parents and family are invited to attend.
The fee is $40 for supplies and after the first child’s enrollment, additional enrollees only pay $35. Scholarships are available. Snacks will be provided daily.
All you have to do to sign them up is contact Glynda Rich at 731-225-4470 or Brittany Martin (at The Banner 731-352-3323). You may also email carrollartsinc@gmail.com. Click HERE to sign up online.
Please let us know as soon as possible if they plan to attend, but please bring the supply fee to camp on Monday. We look forward to seeing you there!
