Other Camps

OASN has spoken to many summer camps and this is a list of camps that will work with individuals with autism. Please note, you will need to call each camp and see if it is a good fit for your child. We hope to have more camps to add in the future. If you know of any other camps or programs, please contact us.

For information on camps, please call camps directly:

    1. VSA Florida and C & R Ceramics Presents
      Summer Art Camp My Art My Way 
      For Special Needs Students 

      The arts, while a beautiful voice of self expression with the ability to cross all cultural boundaries, is a profound tool for learning. VSA 

      Florida advocates the arts as a way of communication, a means to unite people of all abilities and a pathway to opportunities. 

      Join VSA Florida Teaching Artist Lynda Crum, at C & R Ceramics for an exciting summer ceramics program. Classes encourage positive self image and personal growth while increasing coordination, cooperation and communication. Curriculum designed for everyone to participate and learn something new!
