Summer Camp
Our 2026 summer camp season has wrapped up, and what a wonderful summer it was! Join our interest list to be among the first to hear about special offers, family programs, and next year’s summer camp opportunities at Montalvo.
Discover the magic of creativity at Montalvo Arts Center, where young artists ages 5–12 dive into visual arts, performing arts, and ceramics sculpture in one of the Bay Area’s most breathtaking settings. Our 175-acre grounds aren’t just a backdrop—they’re part of the experience, connecting kids to the natural world as they create, explore, and grow.
Led by professional artists and educators who know how to spark wonder and imagination, our summer camps inspire children to step away from screens and into hands-on artistic adventures. In a supportive, nurturing environment, your child will flex their creative muscles, forge new friendships, and discover unique ways to express themselves—all while breathing fresh air and surrounded by stunning nature.
At Montalvo, we don’t just teach art—we cultivate creative minds and connect young people to the natural beauty around them.
