This summer our Architectural Day Camp is back by popular demand! Designed for creative young minds, we invite kids to the most architectural day camp of the city in order to explore the world of architecture through hands-on projects and real-world inspiration. Join us for another summer of building dreams from the ground up!

 

Every day, from Monday to Friday, at Aka Studio in Cholargos, children will take part in architectural workshops, explore the relationship between architecture, art and science, have fun in organized activities in the Municipal Park of Cholargos and participate in architectural walks in the same neighborhood. Every Tuesday and Thursday, early in the morning, we will depart for excursions to various museums, foundations and interesting areas of Athens.

The program is aimed at children 7-12 years old (children who have just completed 2nd grade to children who have completed 6th grade) who like architecture and 3-D constructions!

​

Monday to Friday from 8:30 to 16:30

The program is divided into 4 separate weekly cycles with their own topics while the central theme of this summer is "Space, Time and Architecture".

1st week 16/6 – 20/6: Architecture and the Environment
2nd week 23/6 – 27/6: Architecture and the Community
3rd week 30/6 – 4/7: Architecture Past and Present
4th week 7/7 – 11/7: Everyday Architecture

Along with the basic architecture program, children will participate in the afternoon zone in theater workshops, dramatization of stories, visual arts, comic and photography workshops. At the end of every week they will prepare a portfolio with their creations.
