Art & History Camp (5-8 grade) at the Greenwich Historical Society

At the Greenwich Historical Society’s Art and History Camp, kids learn important skills while exploring Connecticut’s colonial history and the works of the Cos Cob Art Colony through games, crafts and hands-on fun. Creative young minds will spend time in our historic gardens and barn, exploring their surroundings using art, science, and old-fashioned ingenuity under the guidance of professional educators and artists. Space is limited!
Dive through the centuries, exploring both the history of Colonial Greenwich and the achievements of the Cos Cob Art Colony. Campers will learn the breadth of the traditional crafts of the 18th century, from barn raising, to textile production, to hearth cooking, alongside the distinctive flair of 19th century impressionism and theatre. The best of both centuries is waiting for them.
