Full-day camps run throughout the summer, fall, winter and spring break on Mondays to Fridays, from 9:00am – 12:00pm or from 1pm to 4pm. We recommend 2 or 3 weeks camps for older students ages 10 and up. You can find our schedule and availability further down the page.
Early Drop Off / Late Pick Up
Parents, please be considerate and do not drop off your child early or pick her/him up late. Our studio hours do not allow us extra time between classes. We teach classes, special classes, private lessons, and sewing camps back-to-back, and we do not have a waiting room. Please make all efforts to drop off and pick up within 5 minutes of camp time. If you need to drop off early or pick up late you must SCHEDULE IN ADVANCE for extended camp hours.
Extended Hours Camp Fees:
Early Drop Off (8:45am or 12.45pm) – $30.00 per student per week or $10.00 per day
Early Drop Off (8:30am or 12.30pm) – $75.00 per student per week or $20.00 per day

Camp Fee
All camps run Monday – Friday.
Students allow to bring snacks and water.
Each camp type shown above is offered weekly during the summer unless otherwise noted. Camps are run simultaneously. So there may be someone making a quilt, while someone else is making a skirt, while yet another student in the same week of camp may be making a stuffed animal. In our 8 years of running sewing camps, we have found that this method works best, and each student’s project is inspiring and encouraging to the students who are seeing the process in that same camp.
Camp Registration
Every year since we began in 2013 every week of camp has sold out. This is in red and bold for a reason: Please register early to avoid being put on a wait list. E-mail FIRST to hold your child’s place for camp. By doing so, you are verifying that room is still available.
Payment
You may pay by cash, check, or VENMO. We do not take credit cards. Please make checks payable to: School of Couture. Please be advised we have a strict NO REFUND policy. More information can be found on our Agreement .
Wait List
If there is a week of camp you’d like your child to attend and it is full, please let us know and we will put your child on a wait list. Even though it is rare that we get cancellations, we do get students that need to change their week of camp from time to time. We know that the uncertainty of the waitlist is inconvenient so we do our best to communicate with you through email updates.
PAYMENT INFORMATION:
REFUND & CAMP EXCHANGE POLICY:
We have a strict NO-REFUND policy. Please keep in mind that we have hired a certain number of instructors to cover a certain number of students who have signed up for that particular week. Holding a spot in a camp and needing to change it close to the camp date takes spaces away from other eager students and costs both the teacher, the extra instructors hired for the camp, and the Studio.
· Not a Child or Dependent Expense -School of Couture tuition does not qualify as child care or dependent care expense. Therefore, parents should not attempt to claim it as a tax credit or for reimbursement via a flexible spending account.
