My granddaughter loved camp. She still talks about it and is always playing with the house she made.

Design Your Own Marvelous Miniature Camp Overview
Join us on a creative journey as we design a marvelous miniature structure! We will discuss and explore architecture, interior design, color, toys, furniture and more! Spend a week at the Kemerer Museum of Decorative Arts exploring the dollhouse collection of Elizabeth Johnston Prime and learning about decorative arts.
Campers will get up close and personal with the Elizabeth Johnston Prime dollhouse collection, one of the largest in the United States, and then apply what they learned to their very own structure. Each day will feature a hands-on exploration of architecture, interior design, color, toys, furniture, and more!
On the last day, parents are welcome for a show and tell. All campers will be able to take their finished structure home at the end of the week. Each 5-day session is limited to just 9 children ages 7-12.
