Summer Camp

Home

Overview

Our Education Programs combine art, education, and culture awareness.

Taller Puertorriqueño’s Summer Camp offers a fun-filled, cultural experience focused on art in the Barrio, learning about, appreciating, and celebrating our diverse community. With well-balanced, Puerto Rican-style breakfast, lunch, and snacks, we explore the city on field trips and build cultural understanding through music, art, theater, literacy, science, and sports programming. 

Our summer camp students participate in various activities ranging from art to recreation and get the opportunity to go on various field trips. Activities include, but are not limited to:

  • Painting and drawing
  • Dance
  • STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math)
  • Fashion Design
  • Photography
  • Theater
  • Recreational Play
  • Field Trips
  • Career Days
 
Once students arrive they are provided with breakfast to start their days and then head into the programming designated for the day. They participate in interactive lessons and activities throughout the summer. They are also taken on various field trips, past field trips have been to museums like Grounds for Sculpture, the Philadelphia Insectarium and Butterfly Pavilion, and more. At the end of the summer, we host a family day encouraging parents and supporters to visit Taller and enjoy a day filled with activities and community to close out the program.
