Summer Camp Scholarships
Making Summer Arts Programming Accessible for All Families
Art Zone Sun Peaks is thrilled to introduce our Summer Camp Scholarship Program — an initiative designed to support families in need while offering children meaningful, creative experiences through arts-based camps. Thanks to the generous support of our local sponsors, we’re able to make camp accessible to more families in the Sun Peaks community.
Why It Matters
With limited childcare options available this summer and over 150 children enrolled at Sun Peaks School, access to reliable, enriching day programming is more important than ever. Our full-day camps run Monday to Friday from June 30 to August 29, blending art, movement, and play in a safe and inspiring environment at the brand-new Art Hub near the Orient Chair.
We believe every child deserves a summer filled with creativity, connection, and joy — regardless of their family’s situation.
How It Works
Each scholarship covers the full cost of a one-week camp experience ($325) for a child between the ages of 6–12. Scholarships are awarded based on need and availability, and applications are reviewed confidentially by our internal committee.
Eligibility
Families must:
Reside in Sun Peaks or the surrounding area
Have a child aged 6–12
Demonstrate barriers to accessing summer programming (financial hardship, limited childcare, single-parent household, employment constraints, etc.)
To Apply
