Summer Maker Camps 2026

Maker Camp registration for Summer 2026 opens on March 1st.

At Glitter Barn, we really love kids and our mission is to create a welcoming space in our charming studio for kids to be themselves, to be creative, to make new friends, and to have fun! That’s what summer is all about.

Each week features a new hands-on theme that encourages kids to tinker, design, and bring imaginative ideas to life using really cool materials and tools. Expect laughter, a little mess, and lots of creative joy for kids ages 5–12!

Register for one week or all summer long (multi-camp discounts available—email for details). Camp runs 9am–12pm, with an optional 9am–2pm Extended Studio Time option for even more creating, games, and maker magic.

A note about the cost of camps: We get that summer camps require an investment of your family’s valuable resources. At Glitter Barn, we want you to know that we are mindful of that in the creation of our camps and our pricing. What you will experience with us at Glitter Barn is not just babysitting.  It’s a unique, personalized, memorable, week-long crafting experience that feels like a big party every day.  Each day your kiddo will bring home something really cool that they made (or they’ll work all week adding to a really big amazing project that comes home at the end of the week).  We aren’t just sending home worksheets colored with crayons. These are really amazing projects that require a lot of supplies which are factored into the cost of our camps (like everything else these days, art/crafting supplies have really gone up in price!).  Our wonderful team of teachers and assistants creates a warm, welcoming space where kids can learn new skills, make new besties, and enjoy creative time with the friends they come to camp with.  If you camp with us this summer, your kids get a really special experience for just $23 an hour if they stay half day and only $16 an hour if they join us for extended studio time.  This is great deal for such a unique and special experience. We hope you’ll join us for an unforgettable summer!
