↘ What to look for
For performing arts, ask whether the week culminates in a performance (and whether parents are invited), how parts are cast, and how much actual stage time each kid gets. For visual arts, ask which media are taught (ceramics vs. just drawing changes the price), what the kid takes home, and whether the camp uses real artist-instructors or rec-staff.
