The Children’s Academy at LIU Brooklyn offers immersive summer fun for children ages 3 to 14.

Starting June 26 and running for eight weeks, our program focuses on creativity, academics and athletics on the Brooklyn campus of one of America’s largest private universities.

With offerings including architecture, Capoeira, chess, Chinese, circus arts, hip-hop, karate, movie-making, origami, photography, robotics, theater arts, Spanish, video game design and swimming, LIU has one of Brooklyn’s most engaging day camps.

Week-long Blackbird Sports Camps in baseball, basketball, flag football, soccer, strength and conditioning, and swimming — under the expert guidance of LIU coaches — offer athletes ages 7 to 14 the opportunity to excel in a chosen sport.
