We will spend the day rotating through different shop opportunities.

We love working with kids and instilling a love for craft!
We are accepting a limited amount of kids for this fun daycamp, so don’t hesitate signing your kids up now! Bring a sack lunch or you can order a lunch from Jac’s and we will pick it up. We will provide a morning and afternoon snack.
