Nature Day Camp at The Yakima Area Arboretum
08/03/2026
Summer Day Camp Weeks, Camps run from 9 am to 3 pm
Week 8- August 3 to August 7 Art in Nature (1st-3rd and 4th-7th)
Campers will be inspired to create and discover art in nature. Lessons will include different methods artists use to create art that is inspired by nature and created with objects found in nature.
What better way for your child to spend their summer than outside in the fresh air and sun at Yakima Area Arboretum's Nature Day Camp! Our camp themes help guide the games, lessons, activities, and exploration of each camp week. Themes will also help focus the camp towards your child’s interest and add variety for our multi-week campers. However, nature being nature, we also reserve the right to switch it up a bit if a unique opportunity presents itself, i.e. taking the time to literally stop and smell the roses during Survivor, or sitting quietly and listening to the American bullfrog bellow his tune during Arts and Crafts week. As we like to say, “There is always something new to do and view at the Arboretum.”
