TUITION AND FEES
Our Imagination Camps are offered on a sliding scale basis from $5 - $350 per week. Full scholarships are also available.
We are fully committed to welcoming a diverse group of campers and work to ensure our programs are accessible to everyone, regardless of economic means. Our sliding scale tuition fees ensure that our campers represent an economically, racially, and culturally diverse community.
Yes! And…’s sliding scale tuition is based on the principle that a family’s financial commitment should be in equitable proportion to its financial resources. The direct cost of camp is $350 per week and $230 per week for our 3-day week. If possible, we invite those with more financial resources to pay above $350/$230 to help offset the costs of those with less resources. Families with less financial resources are invited to apply for Camperships, the lower tiers of the sliding scale ($5-$349). Full Camperships are also available. Camperships are available to anyone who needs one and no documentation is required.
All tuition must be paid in full by May 1, 2025. After this date tuition will need to be paid at the time of registration. If this is not possible, please reach out to us to discuss a payment schedule.

If your child would benefit from our summer camps but you are concerned that camp tuition might be too costly, we strongly recommend that you enroll your child today and check “Campership” to apply for our scholarship program. Families that enroll in camp and apply for a Campership are under no financial obligation until their Campership is confirmed and accepted. Flexible payment options are available should you need it.Important information to note:
• Camperships are offered on a sliding fee scale from $0 to $349 per week; families must cover any additional extended care fees they incur.
• Applications are considered on a first-come first-served basis. Yes! And… Collaborative Arts reserves the right to award tuition assistance at its discretion.
• All Campership recipients will need to complete a Campership Agreement. Pay no fees until you have been contacted with this agreement.

Once we have reserved a spot for your child, you will be responsible for payment for the days and weeks that you have chosen, even if your child is absent. If you choose to cancel your registration before May 1st, a $50 per week fee will be withheld for each week registered. There will be no cancellation refunds given after May 1st with the exceptions listed below:
*In relation to Covid-19, your tuition will be refunded if your family has to quarantine because of Covid-19 illness or suspected exposure.
*If there is a waiting list for the camp and someone is willing to take your spot in the camp, you MAY be eligible for a full refund less the $50 per week registration fee.
*A camper who becomes ill (not related to Covid-19) or injured during the week of their camp MAY receive a prorated refund as determined by the Program Director.
*Refunds will be granted before your scheduled week of camp for reasons of illness, injury (a doctor’s certification may be requested) or death in the immediate family.
Please note the following:
*Refunds will not be granted for scheduling conflicts or no-shows.
*Refunds will not be granted to campers who leave camp by their own choice.
*Campers may transfer to an alternate session, if space permits, without penalty.
*Any refunds will be made to the individual who made the original payment.
BEFORE AND AFTER CARE
Some of our families need to utilize a longer day of care for their family. For the past few years, we have been happy to offer extended enrichment times for these families. Campers who stay longer are teamed with a Staff member and help set-up, tear down or are utilized to further our imaginative story with crafts, building sets, and more.
Before Care opens at 8am and is offered Monday - Friday
Late Care closes at 5pm and is offered Monday - Thursday (Friday’s may be arranged with your Camp Director if needed)
Extended care is $8/hour and can be added by the day or the week, but we do require a week’s notice in order to have proper staff coverage. Unfortunately, we are unable to offer scholarships to cover before and after care as the money goes right to the staff members responsible for the care.
Please note your need for extended care on your registration form so that we can send you the Extended Care Sign Up Form.
UPCOMING PERFORMANCES
Each weekly camp will present a small show on their final day of the program.
