Step inside the world of fame, fantasy, and larger‑than‑life characters! In Fame Factory, campers explore how costumes, makeup, poses, props, and storytelling transform everyday people into celebrities—from movie icons and sports heroes to fictional characters and internet stars. Through artworks, photos, and media from across American culture, kids will investigate what’s real, what’s invented, and how images shape our ideas about fame.

*Your camper will need to bring a packed lunch as lunch is not provided.

CALC wants to ensure that financial hardship is not a barrier to participation. Read more about scholarship support here.
