Spend your winter break at the Durham Museum!
Join us for six days of “rockin” fun with our special music and sound themed camps! Campers will spend time in Louder Than Words, on display from the Rock & Rock Hall of Fame, as well as The Platform, an interactive play space with added STEAM-based activities related to music and sound. Families can register campers in Kindergarten-6th grade for individual days or sign up for a three-day “week” to receive an added discount. Camps are scheduled from 9AM-4PM, with an optional Beyond the Camp experience for early drop-off (7:30AM) and late pick-up (5:30PM). All camps are taught by certified teachers.
