Open to new and advanced students. Dungeons and Dragons presents endless possibilities and allows you to roleplay as a hero in your own story. Players work together as a team to decide how to respond to problems and solve them. D&D is not only fun-- it's a group social activity that teaches teamwork, cooperation, storytelling, problem-solving, and even math. D&D has become one of our most popular classes, we are so excited to introduce a new generation to this timeless and unique game! DM: Adam Ledet

We allow exceptions to the ages for siblings and close friends, as long as they can focus and keep up with the other students in the group.

Join us for the 2nd Annual Bywater Midsummer Mardi Gras - hosted by our Art Camp 504 students! At the beginning of the week, students vote on a theme and name for their Krewe and will split up into sub-krewes based on their interests. Each sub-krewe makes coordinated costumes, throws, banners and flags. We encourage campers to use recycled materials, old costume pieces, and unordinary objects to create wild shapes and structures. Join our Parade Dance Troupe, help design our bicycle floats, cook food for the concession stand, so much to do to get ready for the big day! Camp culminates in the Bywater Midsummer Mardi Gras Parade - a new event for the whole community to enjoy. The parade rolls at 6:30pm from Markey Park, come out and catch some throws!

The only thing more fun than playing with toys is designing them! In this crafty session students will challenge themselves to create fun, durable and unique toys using a variety of art supplies and exotic found objects. Toy options include puppets, stuffed animals and clothes, trading cards, doll houses, action figures and more. Students will choose one or more toys to focus on over the course of the week. Every afternoon we will “test” the toys through organized play sessions! Students will work in groups or individually to create their own toy company - complete with a logo, toy boxes and signage. On Friday, students will set up tables to present and pitch their fantastic new creations at the Toy Design Expo for family and friends!

Calling all young culinary artists for the most delicious camp of the Summer! Over two weeks we’ll transform the Tigermen Den into our very own, student-run restaurant and dinner theater, all leading up to an unforgettable dining experience for families. Campers will be split into small groups to learn Cooking 101: from kitchen safety and food prep basics to creating delicious full blown dishes from scratch. Students will have a blast role playing as everything from head chef to servers. All week long, our young chefs will not only learn recipes for the big meal on Friday, but will create and decorate to the theme (crafting menus, chef hats, center-pieces and more!) We will build out and decorate every corner of the Tigermen Den - completely transforming the space into a dinner theater experience. To cap it all off, families will be invited to join us Friday afternoon for the very exclusive opening of Nola’s hottest new restaurant, where they will be served an unforgettable three course meal!

The sky's the limit in Fantasy Camp! Join us as we imagine and create fantastical characters from distant realms. Students will participate in two workshops - Dungeons & Dragons and World Building.

We will learn how to build our own armor and accessories out of poster board and cardboard. Students will craft  castles and fortresses using kid-friendly cardboard cutting power tools. Students have the option to create miniatures of their D&D character using sculpture or 3d printing. We will introduce students to LARPing - Live Action Role Play.

Wow, we can’t believe it’s the end of the summer! This last session will be spearheaded by our students - what do you want to do? We will teach students how to lesson plan and prepare short activities for each other - gathering materials, creating example projects, breaking down lessons into smaller steps. There will be daily fashion, puppet, and talent shows. We’ll play D&D, clean out the fridge and cook all the leftover food. This will be a calm, wind down week to get the students back into the mindset for school. We will enjoy each other’s company and spend time with our puppies! This week only will have drop in days. Camp culminates in a student led presentation for family and friends!
