Welcome Back!
Studio Little Hen
is a small, home-based Summer camp. We use a large renovated garage as our classroom space, and take full advantage of our 1/2 acre yard which includes a large garden, swing set, fire-pit area, chicken coop, and picnic table. Be sure to check out photos of our space if you haven’t been here before.
Ages 5-9
Hours: 10-2:30
Price:
Tier 1: $190/week (regular price)
Tier 2: $175/week (for families who qualify for EBT)
Tier 3: $205/week (to support enrollment for low-income families)
Accessibility notes:
Campers do not come inside of our house. There is a hand-washing station in the classroom, and a port-a-potty in the front yard. It can be rainy and get quite hot, but our yard is very shady and we make use of fans in the classroom, as well as frequent water refills.
2023 Dates and themes
-JULY 17-21: Mud Kitchen (FULL)
Campers will help to design and build our very own backyard mud kitchen! Once we have a sink and utensils in working order, we will make all kinds of recipes- some mud, some edible.

In this session, we will utilize all kinds of quilting techniques such hand quilting, applique, and crazy quilting to create a collaborative quilt project that can be donated or raffled off to support a local organization of our choice.

In this session, campers will design and implement a mural to be hung at the Just Roots farm in Greenfield.

-AUGUST 14-18: Costume Creation
A wizard? A turtle? A polka-dotted tractor with wings? The choice is yours! In this session, campers will decide on a costume and character they’d like to create from top to bottom using paper mache, cardboard and hot glue, textiles, and more.
-AUGUST 21-25: Creative Collage (FULL)
The possibilities for collage are as endless as there are materials to use! This week, we will experiment with construction paper, magazines, natural and recycled materials, painted paper, and more to create both illustrative and abstract works.

Along with a variety of apple-themed crafts and recipes, we will usher in the end of Summer by processing local apples in our cider press and sipping on fresh, sweet, apple cider!
