The Kravis Center is committed to creating a safe, fun and supportive environment for all campers. To ensure a positive experience for everyone, we have implemented the following behavior guidelines.
As a responsible camper I agree to…
- Be present at camp from 9am – 4pm every day. Excessive absences or tardies may result in dismissal from the showcase.
- Show respect and treat others with kindness and consideration, including my instructors, staff, fellow campers and camp property.
- Pay full attention to my instructors and follow their instructions.
- Exhibit a positive attitude, participate in all activities and share creative ideas.
- Be polite and kind.
- Bring a healthy lunch and two snacks each day.
- Ask for permission from my instructor to leave class for any reason.
- Follow safety rules for all activities.
As a responsible camper I do NOT…

- Being inappropriate or distractive items to camp.
- Wear unsuitable clothing or shoes.
- Talk when my instructors are talking.
- Participate in disruptive or unsafe behavior.

ArtsCamp has a strict “Three Strikes” policy.
If a camper does not follow the guidelines or exhibits disruptive behavior, staff will take the following steps:
Strike 1 — A teaching artist will issue the camper a Strike and inform the ArtsCamp Administrators.
Strike 2 — A teaching artist and camper will meet with the ArtsCamp Administrators for a verbal consultation, followed by a phone call to a parent.
Strike 3 — A parent will be contacted to pick up their child and the camper will not be allowed to return. No refund will be issued for dismissal from ArtsCamp.
Zero Tolerance Policy
The following actions may lead to an immediate Strike 3.
- Bullying and Harassment: Any form of bullying – physical, verbal, or emotional – is strictly prohibited.

- Any behavior that targets or harms others based on their identity is strictly prohibited. This includes, but is not limited to, comments, actions or attitudes related to race, ethnicity, gender identity, language or disability.
The Kravis Center staff reserves the right to dismiss any child in violation of this code of conduct.
