We have something for everyone to enjoy!
Walden Pond hosts a variety of programs throughout the year. From school year sessions that further enrich traditional classroom learning, to summer camps and festive holiday workshops. Walden Pond has something for every child to enjoy art, nature, and to have fun while learning.
We are constantly invited to be what we are.
Henry David Thoreau, author of Walden; or, Life in the Woods
Who We Are & What We Do
Walden Pond Interarts Learning Center was founded on the premise that we are all born with the gift of creativity. Through expansion of their innate creative potential, children are guided to the realization of their uniqueness and preciousness via their Walden Pond within.
Since 1985, we have been a female-led small business, inspiring generations of children through an extraordinary blend of fine arts, nature exploration, and early childhood education. Our innovative curriculum encourages curiosity, creativity, confidence, and compassion while helping every child discover the joy of learning through artistic expression and nature appreciation.
“The teachers, the atmosphere and the art is always top tier at the Walden Pond!”
“They are both sooo excited! I’ve never found an activity that both my children enjoy so much as going to Walden Pond!”
“Thank you for having such a beautiful place for the kids to go and dream and play and create art. No place like it 💕💕”
