421 Summer Club is a two-week summer camp held in collaboration with Ladder Up, combining movement, life skills, creative arts, and hands-on learning across two age groups running simultaneously on campus.

The camp runs Monday through Thursday, 9 AM to 2 PM, welcoming children in two groups, ages 6 to 9 and ages 10 to 13. Each day is built around four rotating pillars. Movement sessions draw from rotational movement-based exercises. The Breakfast Nook and Reading Hour pairs hands-on cooking exploration with reading time. Life Skills sessions move through emotional intelligence, and confidence-building. Making is divided between The Artist's Lab, a hands-on exploration of arts and creative practice, and Humans in the Loop, a session inspired by the current exhibition, Human in the Loop by Dr. Ahmad AlAttar, where children explore the fundamentals of all things code!

Both age groups follow the same four pillars each day, with the sequence rotating between groups. All activities take place across Studios 1, 2, 3, and 4 on campus.
