Summer Camp Registration has now ended – Day Camps coming soon!

2023 Summer Camps Kindergarten – 8th Grade

All year long, kids are counting down the days till summer break. That’s why Tallahassee Museum is offering our yearly Summer Camp program to let kids be kids this summer! Led by our experienced educators, Tallahassee Museum Summer Camp offers an array of different activities for children ages Kindergarten-8th grade to enjoy. Our team approach implements creativity, collaboration, critical thinking, and communication into each day’s lesson plan. From encounters with wildlife to exploring cultural heritage, your child will have an enriching camp experience at the Museum. Camps are offered to children who have completed grades kindergarten- 6th grade and Jr. CITs (7th-8th graders).

For our youngest campers, the Tallahassee Museum offers our pre-school summer camp! Children ages 3-5 years old are welcome to sign up. Campers must be fully potty trained with no adult assistance to participate. Please see the Preschool Page for more information.
