SCOSAG's Super Summer Fun Camp consists of five two-week sessions for
children 5 to 12 years old. In addition to a strong focus on visual, theatrical,
musical and literary arts, the camp functions as a multi-disciplinary
experience including cardiovascular games, science-and-nature activities,
up-beat history lessons relevant to St. Louis and Tower Grove Park, confidence
and teamwork-building activities, story telling presentations and water
activities.

APPROPRIATE DRESS
Don't wear nice clothes! We get messy! Play clothes, closed-toe shoes, caps or visors, and sunscreen are essential. If you’d like, send an art smock (old shirt or apron) with your camper that can stay at the studio for the duration of the session. To beat the heat, plenty of activities will involve water. Swim suits worn under shorts and shirts are always recommended. Families will be notified on days where swimsuits are required, (i.e. days when we visit the wading pool.)
REFUND POLICY
Camp tuition will be refunded or credited if you withdraw 15 days IN WRITING
prior to the first day of camp; a 25% administration fee will be retained.
Within 7-14 days, a 50% refund will be granted. Less than 7 days, a 25%
refund will be granted. No refund will be granted after the first day
of camp.
RAIN POLICY
If you have any doubt as to whether or not camp is being held,
call the studio, 865-0060. In general, camp will only be canceled
in the case of a severe electrical storm. If a pop-up shower
catches us off-guard, there's plenty of room on the studio
porch, and we have plenty of rainy day activities to keep
the fun going.
It is the Mission of The South City Open Studio and Gallery
to provide a safe and educational environment for children to explore
the Arts and also to strengthen the ties within the St. Louis neighborhood,
its families, and its youth.
