Kids Summer Camps

Kids Summer Camps at 1111 ELM

Summer at 1111 ELM Soap & Candle Studio is all about creativity, color, and hands-on fun. All sessions occur at the 1111 ELM studio located at 17 N Cass Avenue, Westmont, IL.

Our Kids Summer Camps are designed for ages 8+ and give young makers the chance to explore, create, and take home their own handcrafted treasures. Each camp is built around a unique theme and includes a mix of soap making, candle pouring, bath product creations, and artistic projects that encourage self-expression and confidence.

Whether your child joins us for a full 4-day camp or a single-day experience, they’ll leave with new skills, new friends, and a collection of creations they’re proud of.

4 Day Camps: $295 per attendee
1 Day Camps: $95 per attendee
