Nature Lab is an immersive, hands-on camp where creativity meets the outdoors. Campers will explore natural materials, outdoor-inspired art, and simple nature-based experiments while building curiosity, observation skills, and creative confidence. Using found and natural elements, campers will create, build, investigate, and reimagine their relationship with the natural world.

Activities may include nature-inspired building, land art, texture exploration, simple science experiments, and creative problem-solving. The focus is on exploration, process, and connection to nature rather than finished products.

Through play and inquiry, campers will develop an appreciation for environmental stewardship and sustainability by learning to observe, respect, and creatively engage with the world around them.

Expect outdoor play, thoughtful making, muddy hands, and lots of fresh-air creativity.
