Camps

Camp at CMON promotes discovery and experiential learning through daily STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art, and math) activities. Campers imagine, design, and connect to the world around them. Ignite your child’s curiosity and fuel learning.

Campers will engage in exciting activities like creating works of art, testing scientific skills, making new friends, and more! Campers will also spend time exploring in the museum.

Camp hours for all camp dates are 9:00 a.m. -5:00 p.m., with early drop-off starting at 8:30 a.m. (unless otherwise notated)
