Unleash Your Inner Inventor!

Fun and Learning Combined

Calling all young innovators and engineers! Are you ready to transform your imagination into reality? Fiber Arts Camp is an exciting adventure where you'll use everyday materials like string, fabric and yarn to design, build, and bring incredible creations to life!
