Thrive Creative Arts
Private
Create & Thrive is a music-based, arts-rich summer camp at Thrive Creative Arts on Center Oak Court in Mechanicsville, for rising 1st through 6th graders (roughly ages 4-12). Each week carries a new creative theme, and campers write original songs, explore rhythm and musical styles, make visual art, tell stories and build performances rather than repeating a fixed curriculum. Full-day and half-day options are offered, with pricing starting at $235 per week across multiple weeks.

★★★★★Traci WMy daughter has been taking classes at Thrive for a year now, and she absolutely loves it! She comes home and practices her new skills each week, and I’ve seen her grow and develop so much even at a young age. Her favorite course so far has been Mini Keys with Mr. Jesse and Mr. Alex! They make the class so much fun for the kids, and she often tells me “I wish I could go to music class every day!” Highly, highly recommend!
★★★★★Aly RobinsonWe love Thrive! My daughter has attended jam band, drums and is now doing art! We love Erika Holson, there’s a different project every week to go along with a monthly theme.
★★★★★Brittany TaylorWe love Thrive! Daughter attends for voice and art classes (Ms. Sequoia and Ms. Garcia are wonderful!). Daughter loves going and looks forward to it every week. She loves talking about the things she’s doing and learning. It’s wonderful we have something like this in the area and I’m so thankful I found it.
★★★★★Lindsay McInteeWe’ve had a great experience with Thrive. My 12-year old really wanted to learn guitar but we didn’t know where to start. Lessons with Kyle have been amazing and my son has made so much progress in a short period of time. He is really enjoying the process. Plus, they’ve been flexible with my schedule and our family’s needs.
