  • Frazier Summer Camps

    History Through the Arts

    Grades 1-6

    $265/week members I $295/week non-members

    We’ll kick off summer with creative energy. Each day this week we’ll focus on a different art discipline–painting, sculpture, music, theater, and film. We’ll host visiting artists for hands-on experiences, learn about the history and cultural influence of specific artists and art movements, and take mini-field trips around the block to explore Main Street art sites and museums.

  • Silver Screen Heroes

    Grades 1-6

    $265/week member I $295/week non-member

    Calling anyone from an alternate universe! Every summer is loaded with blockbuster movies and superheroes, so it should come as no surprise that people have always loved a good hero or heroine story.  This week we’ll find the balance between real world and fantasy as we meet Wizards, Jedis, Mutants and plenty of real people with amazing abilities. 

  • Around the World (In 5 Days)

    Grades 1-6

    $265/week member I $295/week non-member

    Journey around the world without ever leaving downtown Louisville!  The Frazier History Museum becomes your train station, airport, speed boat and hot air balloon as we go around the world in... 5 days! From Monkey's Eyebrow, KY to the Galápagos Islands, each day will take us to a new and exciting locale rich in history, culture, and intrigue.

  • Camp Takeover

    Suggested for Grades 3-6

    $265/week member I $295/week non-member

    Do you have what it takes to be in charge at the Frazier? We’ll spend this week learning what goes into all the ways our museum engages with the public. We’ll uncover behind-the-scenes secrets by taking basement-to-boardroom tours and by meeting with staff members in different museum departments. Each camper will work solo or in teams to create what we in the biz call an “engagement:” a historic interpretation, a game or craft, or a tour of their favorite exhibit. Campers will spend the week perfecting it before they run the show on Friday for the public–and for invited parents.

  • Legends & Folklores

    Grades 1-6

    $265/week member I $295/week non-member

    “Once upon a time . . .” begins so many our favorite childhood stories.  But what were these “times” really like?  In this lighthearted camp we’ll play and create and imagine all day to catch the glimmer of truth behind the Pied Piper, a giant blue ox, swashbuckling pirates, and a princess and one pesky pea.
