If you're looking for summer camp options that will allow your child to explore the arts and spend time outdoors, then check out the camps being offered for all grades by Newtown Continuing Education for Summer 2026!
- SMART Summer Music and Arts Camp (June 29- July 24); no camp on July 3
- Outdoor Explorers Camp (June 29 - July 24); no camp on July 3
SMART Camp cultivates a child's inner artist by encouraging imagination, creativity, and exploration through various art programs. Art not only awakes the inner artist, but allows a child to practice self-expression through movement, music, painting, and more. At SMART Camp, we believe in creating a safe and fun environment, while fostering social and emotional well-being for all campers. On the last Friday of each two-week session, your artist will have the chance to showcase their creations in a confidence-boosting, Art Show.
- Dates: Session 1: June 29 - July 10; Session II: July 13-24; Mon-Fri 8:30AM-1PM (no camp on July 3)
- Campers can choose to attend up to 3 different classes (within their grade group) each day during their 2-week session.
- Location: Newtown High School
- Ages: Grades K-6

Outdoor Explorers Camp
This is a hands-on program that will bring children closer to nature; opening up a new world, while giving them life-long skills, knowledge, and experiences. In this camp, campers will meet and handle live animals, explore woodlands, streams, and wetlands, play, observe, build, and create in the natural world. Most importantly, campers will come and go home with dirt on their hands and a smile on their face! Studies suggest this form of exploring can make children healthier, happier, and even smarter! Our main goal is to give children an opportunity to explore the outdoors, while maintaining a safe and healthy environment.
- Dates: Weekly, June 29 - July 24 (Mon-Fri; no camp on July 3); 9AM-2PM
- Location: Sandy Hook Elementary School
- Ages: Grades K-6
