Camps @ FCMoD

Get ready for a year of fun, fascinating discovery right here at FCMoD! We are excited to host year-round camps at the museum. We aim to provide a safe, inclusive, and educational space where every student feels seen, valued, and inspired. Whether your child is a budding scientist, future engineer, or time-traveling historian, they will have the opportunity to expand their mind and engage their world. We can’t wait to see what we’ll discover together.

Our camps are for kids who have completed Kindergarten and are in 1st through 5th Grade.
