Summer Camps 2025

Aurora has Small Camps with Big Heart. Our camps are educational and project-driven.

Most camps run for one week, except for the Theater Arts Camp that runs for four and a half weeks. 

All camps begin at 9am. Campers can be dropped off starting at 8:30am, and After Care is available till 5pm
(see details for each camp for rates and further information).

Play! Explore! Perform!

Spend the summer learning, creating and exploring in a supportive loving environment. Aurora’s experienced staff and small groups give our campers lots of individual attention for an extra fun summer. All summer camps are open to both the Aurora community and non-Aurora families.

Theater Arts Camp

"Really Rosie"

This singularly epic camp runs for a month, from July into August. Aurora faculty, staff, and alumni counselors guide campers in creating costumes and sets for our Aurora adapted musical productions. They also learn lines and songs and rehearse until they’re ready to sing, dance, and act their hearts out at two live performances! Casts are split into two so there are more roles for kids of all ages to shine.
