About Explorations
est. 1981

Explorations is a charitable organization that inspires curious young minds to learn

Explorations is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing campers with exceptional learning and camp experiences. As a non-profit, all registration fees go directly back into enhancing our programs—ensuring that every child benefits from top-quality resources and instruction.

Unlike many city camps, Explorations is led by experienced teachers and educators, not high school counselors. Campers of all ages receive expert guidance and have access to a variety of advanced tools and materials, from high-tech offerings like state-of-the-art software and 3D printers to professional-grade woodworking tools and creative arts materials.

With small group sizes, personalized learning opportunities, and a wide range of activities, Explorations helps each camper discover their interests and talents in a supportive and inspiring environment. We believe every child deserves access to top-tier educational experiences, and we’re proud to make that a reality.

Though founded as a summer camp, Explorations now offers year-round programming at its Learning Lab on Somerled Ave in NDG.
