Officials with the Capitol Centre say there won’t be any summer camps through the arts and entertainment venue this year.

That news comes from Programming and Events Director Dan Misturada during a recent Facebook Live ‘Status Chat’ hosted by the Capitol Centre.

“We feel that at this point given our current operational level and staffing we wouldn’t be able to do it justice and it’s not really fair to the children attending these camps that they wouldn’t be getting the same experience that they’re used to,” said Misturada. 

Meantime, WKP Kennedy Gallery will be running an online challenge for kids called the Kennedy Kids Craft Challenge. 

“That’s something to keep an eye out for, to keep engaged and some ideas to keep the children active and participating in Capitol Centre events,” said WKP Kennedy Gallery Director/Curator Alix Voz during the ‘Status Chat’ session.

Officials encourage parents to watch for further details on their social media channels and websites capitolcentre.org and kennedygallery.org.
