What is the meaning behind this year's theme?
Our theme for 2024 is "SEEK FIRST." As much as we want the children to come and learn new arts and skills, we want to reinforce the priority of knowing Jesus above all other things. As we teach lessons from the Bible, we pray that the children will be encouraged and inspired to seek first to know God and find him in Jesus Christ.

What is the camp Bible verse?
The camp verse this year is Matthew 6:33, 'But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.'
-
What is a night at Arts Camp like?
Arts Camp is broken up into three rotations book-ended by opening and closing ceremonies.
During the three rotations, children will go to two of the arts classes selected from the four requests they submit.
These classes are progressive throughout the week, so children will stay in the same classes all four nights.
The third rotation is reserved for the Bible lesson. Each night, we will take a look at a different aspect of our theme and be introduced to people and events from the Bible whose stories illustrate that theme.
The final night of Arts Camp is our Celebration Night, when the children have the opportunity to Showcase what they have learned over the week.
-
What about younger siblings?
We do offer a special class for younger siblings ages 5-6. They will receive the same Bible lesson, plus special activities designed just for them, and an intro to a different art discipline each night.
-
What is the Family Dinner?
We are pleased to invite your family to join us for dinner each night prior to Arts Camp. There is no requirement to join us for dinner, but we know getting from work and dropping your children off for the evening can be stressful, and we want to offer you time to spend with your children before Arts Camp.
Our main entrees for the week are:
Sun - burgers
Mon - spaghetti
Tues - tacos
Wed - hot dogs
Thurs - leftovers!
