Camps

The Smithsonian Institution has made the difficult decision to suspend all in-person camps this summer, including Summer Safari Day Camp at FONZ. Please visit the Sofa Safari Day Camp page to learn more about digital camp programs for this summer.

At camp, your kids can explore the lives, habitats and conservation of animals around the world. Camps are available for grades K-7 and offered throughout the year!
