  • Summer Creativity Lab Application

    Why ARCK? ARCK is not a traditional summer program. It is a hands-on creative studio where students build confidence, voice, soft skills, and future-ready skills through art, design, storytelling, and real-world projects. Taught by Harvard and MIT educators, local artists, designers, and mentors, ARCK gives young people the chance to learn in a space that is both creative and deeply personal. Students leave with more than a fun experience. They leave with stronger communication skills, deeper self-awareness, creative confidence, a portfolio of work, and the opportunity to be invited to showcase their projects at ARCK’s Annual Creative Pathways Showcase in May 2027.

  • Which summer programming studio sessions are you interested in? Before you submit ARCK is for young people who are ready to explore who they are, grow their confidence, and build something meaningful this summer. Whether your child is an artist, a thinker, a builder, a storyteller, or still discovering their strengths, ARCK offers a space to belong, create, and grow. We believe the future is not defined only by GPA, test scores, or where a student goes to college. It is shaped by creativity, communication, adaptability, confidence, and the ability to turn ideas into action.If that is the kind of summer experience you want, we invite you to apply.*
