Calling all parents kids interested in arts and outdoor adventures in the Delridge/West Seattle area: Unleash your creativity and explore nature this spring break!
EcoArts spring nature camp is the ideal way for kids ages 7-12 to:
- Explore the wonders of nature through creative art projects.
- Learn about the environment in a fun and engaging way.
- Develop new skills like plant identification, and cooking!

Camp will be held primarily at Youngstown Cultural Arts Center.
