The practical details
We list only what the camp itself publishes, and programs change — dates, prices, ages and availability can all move after we check. Confirm the details on the camp’s own website and contact LEAF Global Arts directly before you register or pay. Last checked August 2026.

★★★Sarah Jean SmithBeautiful experience. Parking and shuttle for a day pass is hilariously horrible and disorganized. This cannot be the best way. Budget an hour plus just to get in.
★★★★★Alyssa BlanchardWith experience from LEAF, this is the place to learn more about it. Having LEAF all the time instead of just festivals. There were interactive touch screens to learn about all the different places that have outreach with LEAF. We also got to talk with Regianna about what the building is about and all that went into making this place! The music room downstairs for touching instruments and getting kids more interested in the arts was the favorite part for us!
★★★★★Jeremy BradshawThe LEAF staff were very informative and inclusive when we dropped in upon noticing their venue. We were given a tour of the center and was invited to join their music session. I would recommend putting this on your to-do list if you visit the Asheville area.
★★★★★Elena KovriginAs a realtor who works in this community it’s important to know local places. My son and I were on a mama/son “date” and we accidentally stumbled across this hands on museum. We both loved it and loved trying different musical instruments. My son now wants to get a drum set😆
★★★★★Laura IpIncredible and creative place to visit, especially with kids! Kids were able to explore musical instruments from around the world in the instrument petting zoo! We also did arts and crafts, played games, and enjoyed the art from around the world. A beautiful place. Will definitely visit again. Kelsey was so helpful and encouraged artistic ideas and play throughout our time there. The Director was also super nice!
