FREE NEIGHBORHOOD CAMPS

What is REACH Neighborhood Camp?

Started in 2004, as a way to connect with the surrounding community, REACH Neighborhood Camps offer 2 weeks of free art camp activities to children and their families in the Moores River Park, Fabulous Acres and REO Town Lansing neighborhoods. This program is made possible by support from the Arts Council of Greater Lansing Young Creatives Grant. Children aged 4-5 must attend with an adult, and children 6-13 are welcome to attend. Interested students can sign up for single days or a full week. Students and guardians enrolled in REACH Neighborhood Camps agree to the REACH Terms of Service.
