Registration Form Here

At the NRC building, 1272 Delaware Ave, Buffalo NY 14209 (entrance and parking round back behind main building). Alternative Day Camp M-F 10am-3pm.

CAMP PEACEPRINTS is a summer camp designed to introduce youth to social justice, while providing them with peaceful conflict resolution skills and exposure to a broader community. It is a two-week long alternative education program for participants ages 8 – 13, with older youth serving as Youth Assistants.
Participants take weekly fieldtrips and hear from local organizers daily. The lesson plans expose them to alternatives to violence exercises, historical movements to end oppression and modern day efforts in community organizing. Music, art, theater, dance, and recreation are significant facets of the program.

The theme of Camp Peaceprints 2021 is “Explore the World.” Activities will include each of the seven continents, as well as the oceans and atmosphere/space, and then put it all together. Besides in-person or virtual field trips, we’ll share customs and culture, languages and arts, and peoples and their stories. Mother Earth and the creatures we live here with, geography and science, will enrich our appreciation of People and the Planet, and what we need to do for sustainable lifestyles that work together for the common good. Call the Sister Karen Center at 716.893.0808 or the WNY Peace Center at 716.332.3904 email info@sisterkarencenter.org for more information.
