World Cultures Summer CampAs anthropologists in the making, Museum campers get their hands sticky making masks. The Education Department of the Museum of Archeology and Anthropology will run seven one-week summer camp programs for children ages 8-12. Each week, children will be immersed in a different world culture through a combination of music, theatrics, art projects, gallery tours, dance workshops, storytelling, costume making and behind-the-scenes discussions with archaeologists, anthropologists and Museum professionals. Afternoons are set aside for recreation and outdoor activities, and Penn students will serve as camp counselors. The programs are:
The camp runs from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. and costs $125 per week for Museum
members and $150 for non-members. Membership costs $45 per year for an individual
and $50 for a household. There is also pre-camp, 8-9 a.m. ($25) and post-camp,
3-5 p.m. ($50) supervision available. To register, call (215) 898-6423 or
