For 50 years, summers at Appel Farm Arts Camp have transformed the lives of thousands of young people. Your child will develop artistic talents, grow in self-confidence and make friendships that last a lifetime.
Founders Albert and Clare Appel believed that every child has innate artistic talent that is waiting to be discovered and developed. As professional musicians and educators, their commitment to giving children the opportunity to grow as people, and as artists, was unwavering.
Today, Appel Farm Arts Camp is a welcoming and diverse community that builds artistic skills through excellent arts instruction in a non-competitive atmosphere.
Arts Camp programs in music, theater, dance, visual arts, photography, video, recording arts, creative writing, sports and swim are led by skilled and mature artists/instructors. Appel Farm Arts Camp offers both performing and visual arts programs for young people ages 9-17.
Appel Farm Arts Camp is located in rural southern New Jersey near the small town of Elmer. It’s a convenient drive from Philadelphia, Wilmington and many areas of southern New Jersey. Washington, D.C. and New York City are a 2.5 hour drive.
