Apprentice Camp | Kids Out and About Nashville

Apprentice Camp

Apprentices take notice! Campers will practice the trades that built America— from weaving and blacksmithing to candle making, hearth cooking, and more. Through artisan demonstrations and hands-on work, campers will learn the history of 18th- and 19th-century trades while gaining real skills in a truly unforgettable history experience.

Please help us keep this calendar up to date! If this activity is sold out, canceled, or otherwise needs alteration, email mindy@kidsoutandabout.com so we can update it immediately. If you have a question about the activity itself, please contact the organization administrator listed below.

Every day in this camp, we will be visited by different artisans, demonstrating various old-timey crafts and skills. Then, the campers will get to make their own miniature version of the craft to keep. We will see blacksmiths, leather-workers, basket-weavers, cloth-dyers, mosaic-makers, and more!
