Hands-on Activities

Safe and Structured

Long days and little structure leave kids stuck inside

Summer vacation often lacks the stimulation kids need to stay active and motivated. Without an outlet, they get bored, restless, and turn to screens. They miss out on social time, creative expression, and the kind of structure that keeps their minds and bodies moving.

 

For parents, it becomes a daily challenge to keep them occupied, entertained, and doing something that actually feels worthwhile.

Make this summer creative, active, and fun!

Our Summer Arts Workshop offers a better option. Each day includes hands-on art projects and exciting group activities led by trained staff in a fun, structured environment.

Kids stay active, explore the arts, come home proud of what they created, and have a memorable summer experience.

"After being born and raised in Porterville 55 years, this is one of the best places for families and children. There has never been much creative activities before. This in my opinion is very therapeutic and helps children to discover their individual talents. Thanks Imagine! "
