We’re ready to get reacquainted with you, San Francisco. The best way to get to know our City is by getting out and seeing it. We’ve got a map of 7x7 and a mission to find the golden nuggets of this town. Why not start the day with a sampling of the world’s best gelato, followed by a surprise circus show? Yes, please! Ever wonder what that wax museum is all about? Us, too! We've got tickets to the City’s most loved attractions and intel on the best secret spots. With so much to see, every day is a new adventure. We’ll walk and use simple, easy to access public transit to get to and from our destinations. Best of all, camp tuition covers everything from bus fare to attraction tickets and snack shop stops. All you need is a lunch and your shoes! *Max 12 participants per week. Participants in this camp must be a minimum of 8 years old by June 1, 2023, no exceptions. Families should plan for their child to attend for the full duration of each camp day; we cannot accommodate late arrivals and early pick ups. *Please pack a mask for all public transit Pick up and drop off will take place at our studio.

Masterwork Mystery: The Golden Gate Getaway June 5-9 | June 12-16 | June 19-23 Get your detective hat on, this one is a goodie. Last summer, this much loved ARTifact mystery adventure was published into a chapter book featured by Books Inc. Join us as we retrace the footsteps of an art thief and navigate the neighborhood unearthing colorful clues. Then, we'll bring the clues back to the ARTifact and carefully restore the masterpiece to its original condition. Each student will recreate a painting of the Golden Gate Bridge + receive a signed copy of the book! The Archaeology Time Machine July 10-14 | July 17-21 *Camp Full: June 26-30 Despite his theories about gravity warps and the space-time continuum, Stephen Hawking didn't believe it was possible to travel back in time...but that's not stopping us. We've been asked to test out a time machine to see what San Francisco looked like waaaayyyy back. After arriving in the age of the dinosaurs, then the gold rush, there's a brief pause to witness the building of the Golden Gate Bridge, and finally we arrive at a time travel party! Handy House Camp July 24-28 | July 31-Aug 4 | Aug 7-11 Have you ever wanted to turn your old toys into a lamp? Sew a pillow? Change a light switch plate? Join us as we explore the tools of the trade and get handy building things that turn a house into a home. Summer of Love Aug 14-18 | Aug 21-25 "My love waits there in San Francisco, above the blue and windy sea. When I come home to you, San Francisco, your golden sun will shine for me..." In 1962, Tony Bennet left his heart in San Francisco. Marching to the beat of its own drum, the music made with heart now the filled the hearts of the masses. Fast forward five years to 1967. The Beatles released "All You Need is Love." San Francisco couldn't have agreed more. From daisy chains and tie dye to the popular songs we still cherish today, Summer of Love is here to stay.
