About Appel Farm Arts Camp
At Appel Farm Arts & Music Center, we believe artmaking is a powerful tool for healing and connecting with others. We have been serving our community as a non-profit since 1978, providing a place for people of all ages, cultures and economic backgrounds to appreciate, study and actively participate in the visual and performing arts.
Throughout our seven decades of service, we have continued to expand our programs to include a wide range of arts activities, from local to national and even international projects. We strive to ensure everyone has the opportunity to experience the joy that comes with artmaking. Our programs reach over 32,000 children and adults each year, proving that the power of the arts can truly make a difference in people’s lives.
At Appel Farm, we are proud to be part of a vibrant and diverse community of art makers, and we are dedicated to providing a safe and supportive environment for everyone to express themselves and explore their creativity. We are passionate about continuing to make artmaking a healing, joyous, and fulfilling experience for our community.
