In operation for over thirty years, Summer Festival of the Arts on Mt. Desert Island offers a three-week arts camp for young people entering grades 1 through 11. SFOA is an all-arts program offering classes in the visual arts, crafts, music, dance, creative writing, theater, filmmaking and more. All classes are taught by experienced artists whose common goal is to inspire the imagination and have fun!

Most of our students live on Mt. Desert Island year-round, but we also have many summer visitors from across the state of Maine and beyond! SFOA encourages community and cooperation among all of its students and their families, our teachers and staff, and the public.

Camp culminates in a weekend-long Grand Finale which gives each student the opportunity to perform, read or display their work.

SFOA is a non-profit organization supported by tuition and donations from generous individuals, local businesses and foundations.
