Nestled in the heart of Vancouver’s creative district, Emily Carr University Summer Camps offer more than just a seasonal pastime—they’re a vibrant launchpad for burgeoning imaginations. Kids dive into contemporary art and design through engaging, imaginative, and hands-on summer camp experiences.

Beyond the Paintbrush: A Multisensory Creative Experience

This isn’t your typical summer arts-and-crafts hour. Emily Carr’s summer offerings are designed for kids and teens who crave creative freedom and a deeper artistic journey. Whether it’s digital storytelling, animation, illustration, sculpture, or design thinking, every module is carefully sculpted to spark curiosity, confidence, and unfiltered self-expression.

What sets these camps apart? They don’t just teach technique—they nurture a creative mindset that stays with your child long after the paint dries.

A Studio Like No Other

Set against the backdrop of a world-renowned art and design institution, the camp’s studio spaces buzz with inspiration. Youths get to work where real artists do—inside Emily Carr’s iconic walls, surrounded by natural light, collaborative energy, and cutting-edge tools. It’s like stepping into an artist’s dream and being handed the keys.

Professional Mentors, Not Just Instructors

Each session is led by seasoned art educators and practicing creatives who understand the nuanced dance between teaching and inspiring. These mentors bring real-world insight, encouraging campers to ask “what if?” and challenge creative norms. Expect your child to come home not just with new skills, but with a richer perspective on the artistic world.

A Place to Belong and Become

More than a camp—it’s a creative community where young artists connect and form lasting friendships. Where young creatives feel accepted, inspired, and free to express themselves.

Final Brushstroke: An Invitation to Dream Differently

If you’re seeking a summer camp that pushes past the cookie-cutter and dares to colour outside the lines, Emily Carr University Summer Camps are calling. They’re not only cultivating the next generation of artists—they’re crafting a space where creativity is currency, and every child is an original.
