Ceramics, Arts, and Crafts Weekend at Camp Michigania

If you love relaxing and working on ceramics, arts, and crafts, this weekend getaway at Camp Michigania is for you.

Just south of Petoskey, along beautiful Walloon Lake, sits Camp Michigania, the home away from home for Michigan alums and their families.

This crafty weekend will be led by our amazing staff of ceramics, arts, and crafts experts, and you will be able to take advantage of our fully-equipped CAC Center to learn how to make everything from stained glass to kiln-fired pottery. Throughout the program, we’ll also offer serene wilderness hikes, rock polishing, and bonfires by the lakeshore. Our program includes lodging, receptions, meals, and activities.
