The most suitable age for art camps especially full day camps are from 6 - 12years old. We'd like to welcome kids as young as 4 but all young campers are expected to be potty trained ;-)
Yes, campers are grouped by age , but if we can make arrangement to siblings and friends. Please remind us in the comment section / let us know upon your arrival.
It is 1:5 to the youngest group. For older age group ( 9 - 12 years old), ratio can go to 1:7 .
We will try our best to make alternate arrangements to the outdoor field trip. If possible we will change to an indoor destination.
What happen if my child misses a day at the camp? Or need to withdraw from the camp, what is the return policy?
There is no refund to our classes or camp, but credits equal to the amount paid will be given to you which can use towards any of our classes/ camps/ workshops. Your credits will never expire!
What are the conditions to receive a student discount for your camps?
The only condition is that you are a current and active student at Pencil. If you’ve attended class in the last 6 months of registering for a camp, then you can receive the discount!
