Why Families Are Loving This Creative Summer Camp in Greenpoint, Brooklyn

Cottonwood Summer Camp Ages 5–10 | North Brooklyn

Summer in Brooklyn means longer days, neighborhood adventures, and—at Cottonwood—an incredible opportunity for kids to explore their creativity in a nurturing, community-based environment.

Located in the heart of Greenpoint, Cottonwood Summer Camp offers a truly unique experience for children ages 5–10. Designed for curious, creative, and kind kids, our camp is a place where learners build, explore, and express themselves through art, storytelling, science, and play.

What Makes Cottonwood the Best Greenpoint Summer Camp for Creative Kids?

  1. 🖌️ Creative Projects & Hands-On Learning

    Each week is built around an exciting theme (like “Inventor’s Workshop,” “Eco Explorers,” or “Camp Nonsense!”), and campers get to dive deep into making, building, and experimenting.

  2. 🌳 Time Outside, Every Day

    We take full advantage of the outdoors, spending time in nearby parks and transforming our space with camper-created play zones.

  3. 💬 Small Group Sizes & Big Imagination

    Our low camper-to-facilitator ratio ensures every child is seen, supported, and encouraged to follow their curiosity.

  4. 🎙️ Special Guests & Surprise Projects

    This year, we’re thrilled to welcome special guest Lotus Porte-Moyel, a journalism student who will guide our older campers in an “Audio Art & Stories” track—learning how to tell powerful stories through sound and interviews.
