2021 Scholarship Application
The Museum’s Summer Camp offers week-long experiences for children ages 4 through rising 8th grade.
A limited number of scholarships are available for families who meet the income eligibility guidelines for the National School Lunch Program, or who are facing other financial hardships. If a family has more than one child, the parent or guardian may submit a separate application for each child in the household.
Changes and Cancellations
The Museum can grant refunds for canceled camp sessions only up to and including May 21, 2021. No refunds will be issued after this date. Changes to individual camp sessions may be made up to two weeks before a session start as available. All refunds and changes before or after May 21, will incur a $30.00 per camp fee.
If your camper cannot attend your week of camp due to a confirmed case or contact with a confirmed case of COVID-19, please contact our reservations team to discuss options.
