Camp Firebelly is an intensive apprenticeship experience like no other,
for 10 talented folks
looking to break into the design profession and use their powers for good.
“Wow: what can't I say about the experience? Honestly I would not be where I am today if it were not for camp. It not only jump-started my creativity after having been laid off from my very first job, but it changed the course of my career. I gained valuable experience, learned a ton about designing and coding for web, found my passion for putting my skills towards charitable causes, met a lot of fantastic people that I still consider my friends, and ended up moving to Chicago because of it. I will always be grateful for the wonderful experience.”

Now for the fun part: tell us about yourself.
Why do you want to attend? What do you want to learn? What makes you…you?
We also want to see some of your work and a short video – nothing too fancy. Just say hi. Let us know you’re (for) real.
Applications are due May 8 along with a $250 deposit (we’ll refund it if you’re not accepted).
Fee + Scholarhips
The fee to attend is $1250. This covers everything you could possibly need (housing, food, transportation) for 10 days.
We do offer two scholarships to campers who wouldn’t be able to attend otherwise. If you really want one, make sure to tell us why* in your application.
*Student loans don’t count – we’ve all got ’em!
