Build Your Own Museum

Columbus Academy Summer Experience

Build Your Own Museum

about event.

Calling all fans of museums -- history museums, science museums, art museums, all museums! Do you love museums … & are you ready to make your own? Over the course of five days, we’ll build our own museum from start to finish … with a museum opening event and showcase on our final day of camp! You pick the topic – last year we had museums on the art of the golf caddy, the history of state seals, and an art museum, to name just a few! Along the way, we’ll learn how to pick an exhibit’s theme, how to ethically collect & display objects to illustrate that theme, how to design an exhibit layout & text, and how to invite the public in with marketing materials, events, & even custom swag! No previous museum experience needed … just bring an interest or a hobby, your curiosity, and we’ll take it from there! See you at the museum … our museum! Please note: This camp is suitable for past participants in Build Your Own Museum – welcome back! Either expand on your museum idea from last summer or build a new museum!

Columbus Academy Summer Experience.

Recognized as one of the best independent schools in the nation, Columbus Academy has, since its founding in 1911, exemplified the country day school educational model. The heart of this model is the idea that the best interests of children are served when home and school work together. At Columbus Academy, parents are integral members of our community.
