Welcome to a summer camp experience like no other! The Pennsylvania Trolley Museum is hosting STEAM-focused summer camps for children ages 6 – 12. Our STEAM Camps are designed to ignite the curiosity and creativity of young minds, blending history with hands-on STEAM activities. At the heart of our STEAM Camps is the perfect fusion of innovation and history. Campers will dive into the captivating world of trolleys, exploring the museum’s historic collection and learning about the technological marvels that revolutionized transportation.
All camps include behind-the-scenes tours, interactive guided tours of our collection of artifacts and historic streetcars, time to explore our brand-new 21,000 square foot Welcome and Education Center exhibit galleries, and rides on several of our fully-restored antique trolleys. Enroll your child in a program that sparks their interest in learning and a passion for science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics. Don’t miss out on this exciting opportunity for your child to have a summer full of fun, exploration, new friendships and memories, and STEAM-fueled adventures!
Unleash your inner innovator! Discover how science, history, and technology come together as we explore the past and plan for the future! Design and build electrifying inventions for a new “Smart Streetcar” using Makey Makey technology and then whip up a fresh batch of conductive playdough. Dive into computer programming with Sphero Robotics to drive through obstacle courses, then design and race robot-powered horsecars.
