Thinkery Camps

Thinkery Camp programs provide a creative, safe and challenging environment for campers to learn and grow—and have a whole lot of fun while they're doing it!

In each weeklong camp, Pre-K to 5th grade campers engage in playful, hands-on learning activities that develop critical thinking skills in a collaborative environment. Camps focus on science, technology, engineering, arts and math (STEAM), with a variety of fun mental and physical challenges that activate campers’ creativity and stimulate their natural curiosity.

Campers explore questions of “how” and “why” through immersive, interactive learning experiences designed to keep them moving, thinking and creating.

Program Information

Thinkery is thrilled to offer camps at several different locations throughout Austin in 2019, with the goal of serving more of Austin’s pre-K-5^th graders in playful, week-long science, technology, engineering, art and math (STEAM) camps.

For information on pricing, please see our Registration and Pricing page. Camps will be filled on a first come, first served basis and space is limited.
