Campers explore art, history, nature, and science within the unique and historic setting of Oakland Cemetery, with weekly themed sessions and field trips to various Atlanta institutions.
Oakland Cemetery Summer Camps offer elementary-aged campers a unique opportunity to explore art, history, nature, and science within one of Atlanta's most historic parks. Through daily creativity-fueling crafts, skill-building games, hands-on problem-solving activities, and engaging experiments, children ignite their imagination and love of learning. Each week features a different theme, allowing campers to delve into diverse topics such as urban exploration, simple machines, geology, eco-engineering, and the journey from garden to table. Activities include building catapults, identifying gemstones, conducting food science experiments, and creating nature-inspired art. Campers develop observation skills, teamwork, and a deeper appreciation for the natural world, all while engaging in active, outdoor-oriented learning balanced with indoor projects and playtime. Field trips to institutions like the Atlanta Botanical Garden, Fernbank Museum of Science, and the Delta Flight Museum further enrich the experience.
A typical day includes morning group sessions, outdoor activities like urban hiking or gardening, hands-on projects such as building simple machines or creating art, and engaging experiments, balanced with snack breaks, lunch, recess, and games.
This camp is best for young explorers aged 5-12 who are curious about art, history, nature, and science and enjoy active, hands-on learning in an outdoor setting.
