Summer Camp

Summer Camp is a program where the children from City of Refuge learned all about the importance of history and historic preservation through hands-on activities and by visiting important places and historic spaces around Atlanta.

Our camp is based out of the LP Grant Mansion, where we learned all about the importance of history and historic preservation through hands-on activities and by visiting important places and historic spaces around Atlanta.

We visited Zoo Atlanta, Madame CJ Walker museum, the Center for Puppetry Arts, and the Atlanta History Center.

Learning about historic preservation hopefully will encourage these children to think about our impact on our environment, reusing existing buildings, which conserves resources and minimizes our environmental impact, as well as a respect for the people and places that came before us. We hope our camp empowers them to become future stewards of our city's heritage.

Thank you so much to our generous sponsors and volunteers for making it possible for us to offer this camp free of charge to these children. Without our APC Members, this would not be possible.
