FAQ
Can I sign my child up for more than one camp?
Yes, in fact, we encourage it. Each program is completely different, so your child can enjoy them all without repeating activities!
+Who are the Crayola® Imagine Arts Academy™ camp instructors?
Our instructors tend to be artists, college students pursuing an education or art degree, former/retired teachers, or teachers on summer break. All of our instructors have experience working with large groups of elementary-aged children and have undergone an extensive background check.
+What is the child to instructor ratio for in-person camps?
The child to instructor ratio varies depending on enrollment. We have up to 20 children in a camp with one instructor and one assistant.
+Are different aged children in the same camp?
Yes, the nature of our program allows children create their art at their own level. Also, our low child to instructor ratio ensures that there is always plenty of help.
+Do you offer extended care?
Yes, at some of our camps. Pre and post care may be provided by our host locations. These locations are indicated with an asterisk on our registration page. You will need to contact the partner-host location directly to secure arrangements for extended care.
+What is your refund/cancellation policy?
If you register through us directly: There is a $25 drop fee if cancelled more than 30 days before camp. There is a $50 drop fee if cancelled 8-30 days before camp. No refunds are given less than 8 days before camp. If your child does not enjoy camp after attending the first day, you may withdraw before the start of the second camp day.
+What should my child bring/wear to camp?
We provide all the equipment and materials. All you need to provide is a child who is ready to have fun! Children should dress comfortably for that day's weather and not wear open-toed shoes as we do some activities outside. For full-day camps, send a lunch. For all camps, a water bottle and a snack or two are recommended.
+Is this an outdoor camp?
Most of the camp day is spent inside. However, we will go outside to play games or do activities like search for inspiration. Our instructors do keep a close eye on the weather and will limit outdoor time when the temperature is high.
