Columbus, Indiana — Landmark Columbus Foundation will produce the 2025 Exhibit Columbus Design Camp, a specialty camp for 3rd- to 6th-grade students hosted at the Columbus Youth Camp from June 16 to 20. This innovative camp is created in partnership with the Foundation For Youth.
This week-long experience gives up to twenty campers the chance to meet and work alongside Exhibit Columbus J. Irwin and Xenia S. Miller Prizerecipients. Charlie Vinz of Adaptive Operations and Nina Cooke John of Studio Cooke John will lead the campers in activities that will directly add to their Exhibit Columbus installations. During the Exhibit Columbus exhibition, campers will be able to view their contribution to the installations.
“This is an amazing opportunity to educate the Columbus youth about the wonder of design and the art of creation from highly respected architects and designers,” said Abigail Flout, Operations and Communications Manager for Landmark Columbus Foundation. “It is wonderful to partner with Foundation For Youth on this project so we can include as many youth as possible.”
Campers will also explore the world of design through hands-on, creative projects led by Exhibit Columbus curator Elizabeth Blasius of Preservation Futures, high school design student counselors, and staff from Landmark Columbus Foundation. Camp coordinator Robin Cain will provide overall guidance and counseling for this camp. He has been working with Exhibit Columbus for three years on the other camp.
Campers will learn new skills, collaborate with peers, and discover how design shapes the world around them.
The cost for the week-long camp is $175 per person, with a $25 discount for siblings who also attend. Registration for the camp is open until Sunday, June 15, through the Foundation For Youth. Scholarships are available from FFY.
