Fantastic Magic Camp Afterschool is a creative, confidence-building program designed for students who thrive in hands-on learning and playful collaboration. Each afternoon session blends structured class time with space to unwind, connect, and practice new skills.
With a curriculum that evolves throughout the year, students may join for a single class or attend the full week or event month, allowing them to continuing to grow, perform, and build confidence alongside familiar staff and peers.
Students arrive to a consistent daily structure starting with snack, socializing, and time to work on homework before transitioning into a focused class in magic, juggling, or puppetry, followed by games and creative practice. Our rotating weekly schedule allows campers to explore multiple disciplines while building skills over time in a supportive, community-centered environment. Ages 6 - 14.
