At Shine, we want to give tweens the opportunity to enjoy the offerings of a creative summer day camp while also tasking them with regularly helping out in our junior programs. We hope the experience will provide leadership and life skill opportunities that prepare tweens to become staff members at camp, as well as productive members of their home community.

Located in Bridgehampton, NY, The Shine Studio offers outdoor and indoor spaces for a wide range of our signature activities. The space was renovated by a team of craftsmen from Benenaula Construction, a Hamptons local construction company, who worked with us on every detail to make our space inviting, functional, beautiful, and modern. It is truly a dream come true and we can’t wait to have you!
Last but certainly not least, we have to say a huge ‘thank you’ to UUCSF for hosting us and providing such a wonderful space for our programming. We can’t stop thinking of the endless possibilities to come from this new collaboration.
