About
Art and Movement Summer Camp is dedicated to fostering a vibrant community where children explore self-expression and physical engagement through immersive experiences in various art forms and dynamic movement activities. We aim to inspire confidence, cultivate imagination, and nurture holistic well-being.
Art
Art is a powerful tool for teaching children everything from fine motor skills to math and science. Art makes it possible to learn, heal, transform, and grow all while playing, imagining, and exploring.
Our organization believes in using creativity to increase confidence, problem-solving, joy, and other lifelong skills.
Movement
Movement is so important for bodies of all ages and abilities. Daily movement increases strength, builds focus, promotes healthy habits, and lowers stress!
Our camps will incorporate a minimum of 60 minutes of focused movement in addition to physical play and games each day.
Location
We are proudly partnering with the American Legion Hellgate Post #27 which is located at 825 Ronan St., Missoula, MT 59801 (next to Record Heaven). We are very grateful to have access to their large hall and facilities. Thank you, Post 27!
