Encore Creative Arts & Enrichment Camp is focused on live, in-person camps where not only will kids use their minds but will interact and socialize. Please read this article from Forbes which illustrates our mission for kids. Click here.
Camp Encore specializes in programs for kids between the ages of 7 and 15 (plus special camps for 4-6 year olds). Our standard program hours are 9:00AM to 3:00PM with additional after care programs from 3:15PM to 5:15PM. Drop off starts from 8:30AM. Please contact us for any special needs. Each module is between one and two weeks so you can sign up for as little as one week or all summer long.
The Encore Event Center in Kearny Mesa is home to the camp and features over 25,000 sq. ft. of indoor and outdoor space. Our dozens of staff members are also parents, educators, professionals, camp counselors, artists and kids at heart!
