Creative Explorers Camp

Hosted on UGA’s campus, the Creative Explorers Camp is a Summer day camp for rising 3rd-5th graders. We will offer multiple sessions across May, June, and July of 2025. Creative Explorers can expect a highly stimulating and engaging curriculum in state-of-the-art specialty topics they would not typically experience in their regular school settings. Our instructors are trained to use research-driven, creative strategies in the classroom while teaching courses that are innovative, interdisciplinary, imaginative, and project-based.

Testimonials

I loved the course I took and all of the friends I made that I will miss a lot. I love the fact that we were always doing something, and we were never bored. I didn’t find anything difficult in this camp. It was overall a great time!
Student

I loved how things flowed. There was so much freedom and experience, but also so much structure…it was an amazing experience, and I would be honored and would love to come back next year.
Student

Thank you for giving me the best memories this summer! During these 2 weeks of summer camp, I felt so much love and care, and I learned many interesting and fun things. I will miss you all very much!
Student

This program fills a much-needed gap in programming […]. It’s not easy to devise an intellectually stimulating and socially fun experience for them, make expectations clear to them, and effectively uphold them—and you all did it. I have nothing but praise and high regard for you. Thank you, Torrance Center.
Parent

Thank you, again, for running such an enriching program for our kids. I can’t say that I have ever heard [my child] this consistently enthusiastic about any other program. She has enjoyed every moment of her time in the program from the academic side to the social side. She called me the first day and said, “I’ve found my people!”
