Art Day Camp

Coming This Summer 2025!

 “Art at the Llama Farm” is a day camp experience located at Walnut Ridge Llama Farm, only minutes from Greeneville and Jonesborough, Tennessee.  The llama farm offers a summer day camp unlike any other in East  Tennessee. It provides children the opportunity to discover a world where life takes place in harmony with nature. Children are allowed to enjoy and learn through fiber arts and crafts while surrounded by the tranquility of llamas. The 26-acre llama farm & campground is the ideal setting for such a unique art and farm experience. Children do not have to be “artistic” to attend the camp. This engaging environment will help children and adults discover their own abilities and creativity through art and farm activities. They will enjoy the lost art of fiber and interact with one of the world’s most gentle creatures, llamas.

If you are 9 to 13 years old for the children’s camp, come spend a few days at Walnut Ridge Llama Farm and have a great time expressing your creative side and learning all about llamas and farm life. Art, animals, and nature — it doesn’t get better than that!
