Youth Programs

Can’t wait until summer? Wolf Park’s Spring Art & Enrichment Camp is a great opportunity for anyone who wants to get an early start on summer camp fun. These one-day camps are filled with crafts, games, ambassador animal encounters, and more. We’ll incorporate some of the crowd-favorite activities from our summer camps and explore nature through exciting art projects as we learn about the value of environmental enrichment from our ambassador animals.

Summer Science Camps are a fantastic opportunity for young wildlife enthusiasts. Small, grade-based groups offer campers a personalized learning experience as they play games, make crafts, and meet our ambassador animals. Each camp is centered around a unique theme that will inspire campers to continue to learn and develop their passion for wildlife.

Summer Art & Enrichment Camps are perfect for creative young people who want to explore their love of nature through art and hands-on activities. In the two day camps, kids will embrace their artistic skills in a variety of nature and conservation themed art projects as they learn about the value of environmental enrichment from our ambassador animals.
