The theme for this day is "World of Art" which ties in with our summer theme about diversity and children of the world. Lunch is included in cost.

Don't miss Summer Youth Day at the Pennsylvania Renaissance Faire in Manheim, Pa! Along the streets of this colorful 35-acre fantasy, children will experience a fun-filled visit to a living and working 16th Century village in "Merrie Olde England" as they encounter the colorful characters celebrating a festival day in honor of Queen Elizabeth I. Marvel at dozens of live shows featuring jugglers, jesters, magicians, sword-swallowers & puppets. Cheer for a favorite knight in the jousting tournament. Witness ancient craft demonstrations. Sing a faire song for the Queen learned in the music workshop, and much more. A box lunch will be included.
