About

At BAX, we foster creativity and encourage playful exploration in a positive and nurturing environment. Our Summer Arts Program (SAP) draws from our year-round education programs to provide young artists with opportunities to explore different forms of mixed media art and performance around a specific themed week thoughtfully designed for active and fun engagement. Arts Specialists teach daily workshops, while a well-trained, creative staff supports a healthy balance of fun indoor (at the BAX Building in spacious studios) and outdoor (at the Old Stone House in Washington Park/JJ Byrne Playground) play, performance, and art-making activities . At the end of each week, families are sent photos/videos with descriptions of the weekly activities and culminating shares.

MegaBAXers (entering 3rd-5th grade) focus on one performing arts discipline each week , while engaging in a diverse span of creative activities, community-centered games, and visual art practices throughout the day. On Fridays , the Mega experience culminates in a performance that showcases their skills built over the week, with a special emphasis placed on their unique creative choices and voice as individual artists.
