Camp Amaras

Learning and growing together

Welcome to Camp Amaras! AGBU Western Region's summer day camp for kids ages 4-12. We offer a fun and safe environment for children to learn new skills, get creative and make new friends, all while being exposed to Armenian culture and language. 

A Summer to Remember- 2026 Summer Adventures Camp Starts July!

Summer Adventures Camp delivers four unforgettable weeks of excitement, learning, and connection! Campers embark on field trips to places like Kidspace Museum and the Pasadena Fire Department. The fun continues with our beloved Splash Zone, creative arts & crafts, and special guest visitors.  

Each day offers opportunities for campers to explore and express themselves—whether through lively Armenian dance lessons at the AGBU LA Dance School, music sessions learning new songs, or meaningful activities celebrating Armenian heritage and world cultures. From start to finish, Summer Adventures Camp is a vibrant blend of discovery, creativity, and community.
