Summer Camps at Sawdust Studios

5 unique camps. Ages 4–18. Professional tools.

Expert guidance. No experience needed.

This isn’t your typical summer camp. Three days of hands-on building where kids don’t just make things—they become makers.

At Sawdust Studios, kids step into a real woodshop, use professional-grade tools, and build projects they’re genuinely proud of. Every camp is designed to teach skills, build confidence, and create that moment every parent loves to hear:

“I made this.”

From action-packed builds to beginner fundamentals to advanced craftsmanship, each camp is structured, guided, and built for success—no experience needed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does my child need woodworking experience?

No! Camps 1–4 require zero experience. Our expert instructors guide every step. Master Makers is designed for older/more experienced makers but no formal training is required.

What ages are the camps for?

Woodland Creatures: ages 4–10. Builds & Battles, Spy Camp, and Sawdust Essentials: ages 6–16. Master Makers: ages 10–18.

What’s the difference between half day and full day?

At $300/month or $800/quarter (save $100 with the quarterly option), this is the most accessible path to woodworking mastery we've ever offered. Your investment includes:

  • Premium materials for all guided projects
  • 6 hours of expert instruction (valued at $720) every month
  • 24/7 workshop membership ($120/month value)
  • Progressive skill development through carefully designed projects
  • A supportive community of fellow makers
  • Take home a remarkable project built with your own hands each month
Are the tools safe for kids?

Safety is our highest priority. All campers receive a safety briefing, wear appropriate protective gear, and work under direct expert supervision. We use professional-grade tools with proper instruction for every age group.

What do kids take home?

Everything they build! Each camper takes home all of their completed projects at the end of each day.

How does the sibling discount work?

Siblings receive 25% off when enrolled in the same camp session. The first camper pays full price.

Can my child attend more than one camp?

Absolutely! Each camp has different projects and themes. Many families register for multiple camps throughout the summer.

What if a morning session is full?

For Woodland Creatures and Master Makers, we may open an afternoon session (12:30–3:30 PM) if the morning fills up. Join the waitlist and we’ll notify you.
