Ross Creek runs arts camps here on the North Mountain in Nova Scotia for kids ages 4-18. We have overnight and day camps running throughout the summer camps season, as well as day March Break camps! 

All of our camps include both focussed fun workshop time and active Camp recreation, from lunch time games to evening rec and campfire so your camper goes home having nurtured both their body and creative spirit.  

Summer Arts is run in day or week-long blocks during the summer with day camps for 5-7 year olds and both day and sleepaway options for ages 7-16. Each week-long program culminates in a showcase celebrating your children’s work, either in the gallery, live, or onscreen, including both collaborative and individual creations that campers develop and take home on the final day of the week.

The Teen Academies is a 2 week-long interdisciplinary arts intensive program for ages 14-18, combining arts education and mentorship from experienced professional artists with the sleepaway camp experience.

Our Youth Leadership is an opportunity for youth 14-18 to develop leadership and collaboration skills. Not only is the program free, but our CiTs (counsellors in training) and Junior Counsellors who participate during our Summer Arts program get to participate in the Teen Academies for free as a part of their participation!
