Absolutely! When registering, write your request in the "special request" section. If wanted after registration, simply email us at csulbsummerartscamp@gmail.com.
​
5. My child goes to Young Scientists' Camp(YSC)/ Academic Enrichment Camp(AEC). Will they have escorts to Young Artists' Camp(YAC)? What would they do meanwhile?
Yes. Because the students are so young, we will have escorts for kids leaving other camps to be walked to YAC. YSC volunteers already escort students to YAC, so our volunteers need only go to AEC. While waiting for other students to arrive, children eat their lunch and play boardgames/relax/do simple art activities at FA2 under the supervision of our volunteers.
​
6.What time is drop-off/pickup and where?
Drop off times: 12:30-1pm. If students are late, you must walk your child to FA-2 and go upstairs to where our classrooms are located. You can park at the meters at the South Turnaround for a fee and walk your child to our campsite. You must use your license plate number for an electronic parking permit. Please contact Karla to make sure your child is signed in prior to leaving!!
PickUp: Same place(FA2). 5-5:30pm. Please let us know if you will be checking out your child early or will be late to pick up!!
​
7. What if my child can't make it to the entire camp? Can we get a discount or bring work with us?
No discounts. Please let us know if a child will not be attending certain days. If teachers allow students to bring work to continue a project, students may do so but could also continue when they return; This depends on a teachers lesson and art project.
​
8. Refunds?
Unfortunately, no. Materials are bought early on for students, so no refunds are allowed. The only case scenario is another COVID shutdown.
