Architecture Camp
Description
Toronto Metropolitan University Department of Architectural Science presents this week-long camp for campers looking to unleash their creativity! Campers learn from some of the top Architectural Science students at Toronto Metropolitan, and participate in innovative and engaging team and individual exercises.
Each week's program culminates in a distinct take-home project that campers develop and take home on the final day of the week.
Camp days comprise an even balance of Architecture programming and physically active Camp games, so your camper goes home each day having nurtured both their body and brain. Camp games take place throughout the TMU gyms, studios, Quad, and pool.
The curriculum for Architecture Camp is developed by Prof. Vince Hui, who is a past recipient of the Ontario Confederation of University Faculty Associations Teacher Award, external link.
Ages
All campers 9 – 13 years old (as of December 31)
