Crayola Imagine Arts Academy of Michigan runs hands-on summer art camps for ages 5-12, where campers explore art, science and imagination through guided themed projects. Camp themes include World of Design (designing solutions around the ocean, the rainforest, Mars and a futuristic city), Artist's Passport, Wild World and Legends and Lore. The academy is based in Waterford and serves families across Oakland, Macomb and Livingston counties, running programs in schools around Metro Detroit and in partnership with local organisations rather than from a single studio.

★★★★★Justine SheltonI am so excited I came across this wonderful establishment! It was the perfect venue and experience for my kids birthday party. The staff is wonderful and the art studio, instruction-led project with party takeaways was amazing. My party guests had such an exclusive, fun, and unique experience! I received great feedback from family and friends who attended! Would definitely go back!
★★★★★Cynthia GiacobbiWe just had our daughter’s 6th birthday party here and it was great. We did the Magical Creatures party and added cotton candy and the flying disc spin art and the kids had so much fun! Even my 14 year old son participated and made some fun art. Rita communicated with me in the days leading up to the party and the whole staff was super nice and very very helpful. The facility was clean and colorful and organized. I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a fun birthday party. It was so easy for me and fun for the kids.
★★★★★Patricia HoskinsWe had my nieces 8th birthday party here and it was a huge success. The owners and staff were amazing! From unloading my car for me to the way they interacted with the children, encouraging only positivity! They even allowed my nieces best friend, a 2 year old golden retriever, to attend her party! What a thoughtful and creative experience! I highly recommend this gem of an organization for your next birthday party or anytime you want to spark a little creativity! Ps. They even let a couple of the adults get their creativity on and make a project with this kiddos. This may have been my favorite part!
★★★★★Jasmine HardimanMy experience with Crayola Art Academy was great. They were able to seamlessly accommodate 15 children without any issues. Rita was great, and explained everything thoroughly. We did the pillow art project as well as the Spin-art bike and the kids really enjoyed it. The parents all commented that this was such a cool concept. I’d definitely recommend this place to friends and family.
★★★★★Lauren McBrideJust had my daughter’s 6th birthday party here it was amazing. Very easy communication with Rita and she quick to provide details. The other staff present were also wonderful. They had everything the kids needed- we simply showed up with snacks/cake and the rest was taken care of. The kids (17 of them) were engaged the whole time and there was even coloring provided for parents. The space was clean, bright, and inviting. We would definitely have another party here!
