Creative Action is an Austin nonprofit arts-education organization that runs summer day camps led by professional teaching artists in theatre, dance and singing, digital media and filmmaking, pottery and other visual arts, often through a social-justice lens. Campers put on musical performances, make monster movies, throw pottery and explore printmaking and animation. Based at 1023 Springdale Road, it is the largest after-school arts provider in Central Texas.

This is one of the best after-school and summer camps in Austin. My kids love it and they don't want to leave when I come to pick them up.
Creative actions is exactly what the community needs for kids! So much creativity as far as the projects they kids do.The staff is amazing and the culture is very chill and diverse! I wish I was able to have an after school program like this when I was in school.
I can’t begin to describe our gratitude to Creative Action Summer 2019 Camps. Our son has been having the time of his life! After rotten experiences at other camps around town, he was convinced that all camps were, “AWFUL!” I’m happy to share that he has fallen in love with Creative Action camps! He has made friends, art and movies. The Creative Action Staff has welcomed him with wide open arms and supported him since day one. We love Creative Action Camps and look forward to many more summers with their incredible programs!
My kids go to creative action after school care. They are a really great organization. Super artistic and fun.
