Kids, Youth & Family Programs

Building community through hands-on art experiences.

At North Tahoe Arts, fostering creativity in young people is at the heart of our mission.

Through hands-on, inclusive programs that spark imagination and build confidence, we’re proud to provide meaningful art experiences for children and families in the North Lake Tahoe and Truckee communities.

From immersive summer camps to free, drop-in art events, our youth programs are designed to inspire the next generation of artists and makers.

Explore the highlights of our offerings below, including our popular Kids Art Camp and Free Art Days.
