Welcome to the Kwanzaa Creativity Camp for Kids! Our one-hour daily camp is designed to inspire creativity and celebrate the principle of Kuumba during the joyous week of Kwanzaa. Kwanzaa is a week-long cultural celebration observed primarily in the African-American community, honoring African heritage and promoting unity, self-determination, collective responsibility, cooperative economics, purpose, creativity, and faith. Immerse your child in a fun and engaging environment where they will explore their creativity through a variety of activities, crafts, music, and games.
