Led by renowned ArchForKids
Arch for Kids provides young people with dynamic hands-on, minds-on 
learning experiences – grounded in architecture, design, engineering and urban planning.  This year's project TBA!

Last summer the campers built a creative community "Rhythmville"  where every building was inspired by a musical instrument! From piano-shaped apartments to guitar-style shops, they turned their neighborhood into a place full of sound, style, and imagination, with a Performance Arts Center and a neighborhood that moved to the beat of their creativity!
Other past projects have included a town inspired by the ancient Mayan civilization in Perú...
