Metalworking Camp Scholarship for PPS students

If we are able to offer your child a scholarship, you will receive an email with registration instructions. You must confirm the spot within 5 business days of notification.

If demand exceeds the capacity of our scholarship program, eligible applicants will be selected via lottery.

Scholarships for Recipients of SNAP / EBT benefits have all been distributed at this time.

Campers are welcome to bring their own lunch. We are not able to refrigerate or heat lunches.

You can also choose to order lunches prepared daily by Bean Sprouts, the Museum’s café.  Bean Sprouts lunches must be ordered at least 1 week before the first day of your camp, and must be for a full week.

Cost:  $45 per week  / $50 per week for gluten free lunches
