Howdy Campers!
Barking Cat Studio’s Art in the City Summer Camp is Art and Adventure for kids ages 5 (leaving Kindergarten) through age 13.
Campers are in store for a super-fun and creative summer at Barking Cat. Our fun and creative counselors lead a small group of art campers (just eight art campers per week) as they travel by NYC subway and bus to explore art museums and other fun places around our wonderful city to inspire our studio art projects.
Kids have a fun-filled, creative week packed with cool trips, fun activities and engaging art projects.
8 creative weeks: July 6 - August 28, 2026.
Registration opens February 15, 2026.
