The setting
Forest on three sides, almost 1,000 feet of oceanfront along Baynes Sound, a heritage apple orchard, and studios for film, sound, art, performance, and code.
Visit Camp Denman
Come to the island for a week of Creating.
Camp Denman sits on 37 oceanfront acres on Denman Island, BC. You arrive with a project, live and work alongside a small cohort of creators, and leave with finished work, new collaborators, and a week you don’t forget. Register for the camp you want and pay: a deposit holds your spot until 30 days before arrival, then weeks are full pay. Camp Pass then guides intake and arrival. We may refuse a booking; if we do, it is cancelled and refunded.
What a visit is like
Live, learn, and create in one place.
Camp life
Campers sleep in canvas tents, eat three meals a day from the camp kitchen at the tables by the water, and gather at the fire pits in the evening.
The week
Cohorts run Sunday afternoon to Friday morning: arrival and orientation, guided studio days, collaboration, and a closing showcase. You come with a project and leave having finished it.
How the Camp Pass works
Your week starts before you arrive.
Once your paid registration is accepted, your Camp Pass activates intake, cohort access, pre-work, and enrollment credits. Check-in on site only verifies who you are and unlocks the arrival boost.

Check-in boost
