Kids Learning with Artifacts During Field Trip

Wands & Wizards Summer Camp 2023

Tickets: $90, $80 for members with coupon code

Don your cloak because wizards and witches are transforming the Museum of World Treasures into a wizarding school for a week! The sorting hat will place you into your house before you hunt for horcruxes disguised as artifacts, take flight in a game of quidditch, learn the Latin influence behind spell-making and the chemistry behind potion making. Take a lesson on ancient ruins and mythological creatures, practice muggle magic tricks, and learn the proper ways of a wizard’s duel. Don’t miss out on the magic!

  • Camp runs Monday, July 10 - Friday, July 14 from 1:00pm - 5:00pm each day.
  • Deadline to register: June 26

Classes begin promptly at 1:00 pm and sessions end at 5:00 pm 

Please be sure to drop off/pick up your witch or wizard at the correct time each day!

FAQs

  • Q. Do I need to bring a printed registration confirmation? A. No. We will have a list for check-in at the door.
  • Q. What can/can't I bring to the event? A. Children may bring a lidded water bottle with their name on it. We encourage participants to wear comfortable clothes that can get dirty as we may be painting, or planting mandrakes! We ask that kids leave all electronic devices at home to help them fully get immersed into the wizarding world (remind them that Hogwarts didn't have cell phones either!). We would further recommend that our 'students' not bring any valuable Potter-themed items as they will not have common rooms to store them in.
  • Q. Is a meal provided? A. We will not be providing a meal for our students. Please be sure that they have eaten lunch before they arrive.
  • Q. Where can I contact the organizer with any questions? A. Please contact Brad Nuest at 316.263.1311 or by email at education@worldtreasures.org.
  • Q. Is early drop off/late pick up available? A. Unfortunately, we are not able to offer early drop off or late pick up at this time. We ask that you respect the time of the Museum staff and volunteers by being on time to pick up your child. If a child is repeatedly left for extended periods of time after the camp as ended, the Museum reserves the right to remove them from the camp.
  • Q. Can I have someone else drop off or pick up my child? A. Yes. Please list their name on the registration form. The child will not be released unless the person is either on the registration form or prior arrangements have been made with the Education Department.
  • Q. Can parents stay to join in the fun? A. Parents are asked to enjoy this time to do the things parents need to do as this will be a camp just for the kids. Please make sure your children understand that you will not be staying with them during the camp.
  • Q. What happens if the camp is cancelled? A. Camp cancellations may occur if the minimum number of campers is not met. If this should happen, you will receive a full refund and be notified one week prior to start of camp.
  • Q: Are scholarships for this camp available? A: Summer camp scholarships are sometimes available based on need and subject to funding. Please email education@worldtreasures.org to inquire.
