Levine Museum of the New South Day Camps for Young Learners

In Partnership With Levine Museum of the New South
Dig In

Engage young learners this fall with Levine Museum of the New South’s dynamic educational day camps that bring history, culture, and social issues to life in meaningful and age-appropriate ways.

Young Historians Academy

No school? No problem! Turn September 23 into a day of adventure, creativity, and storytelling at Levine Museum’s Young Historians Academy – Catawba Culture Day Camp.

This dynamic day camp offers 1st through 3rd graders a unique opportunity to step into the past and experience history in hands-on, engaging ways. Campers will explore the world, language, games and culture of the Catawba people – a Native American tribe currently based in South Carolina.

We’ll begin the day diving into a world of storytelling with two tales by contemporary Catawba author D.S. Sistare, creating pottery inspired by traditional Catawba styles and designing vibrant animal masks.

We’ll spend time outdoors, enjoying a nature walk with a fun scavenger hunt to spark curiosity. We’ll also play Native American-inspired games, including Pebble Patterns, where campers will test their memory by recreating intricate pebble designs.

Please note: September 23 is a CMS teacher workday, but any student of the required age, including homeschool students, is welcome.
