Design and create any of the crafts below for $5 Camper. Craft Workshops are designed for Gr K-6 and adds a fun 20-30 min to the visit. Campers go home with their own creation.

• Scrimshaw Carving  Camper Favorite! Our most popular craft through the years! Campers carve their own scrimshaw boxes to keep.
• Shells & Sailors Valentines Campers learn about shell shapes on our local beaches and create beautiful artwork out of shells, just like the ones sailors brought back from the Caribbean in the 1800s.
• Ocean Diorama Using modeling clay, jars, and creativity, campers fashion their own deep sea ocean diorama. 
• Shark Tooth Necklaces  Campers touch shark jaws and learn to identify shark tooth shapes. They then create a shark tooth necklace or keychain.​
