Surf City is no ordinary summer camp. It is an action-packed week of thematic team competition, water sports, zip-lining, laser tag, & much, much more—but most important of all are the powerful worship services & personal mentorship from a team of loving leaders whose ultimate goal is to point students toward a lifetime relationship with Jesus Christ!

This year, our team has the incredible privilege of taking high school students from our Afterschool program, & many of them have been coming to The COVE since they were in sixth grade! The Pittsburgh Kids Foundation has generously awarded us with scholarships to cover camp costs, but we still need help covering the student's travel expenses. We are headed all the way to Silver Lake in western Michigan!

If you are excited for kids to meet Jesus, experience His love, & learn to walk with Him in daily, we invite you to pray with us for this trip, & we ask that you give whatever God lays on your heart. Whether it’s $10 or $100, every cent makes a difference.

We look forward to sharing what God does in the lives of our students this year at Surf City, & we cannot wait to show you all the pictures!
Please check out this highlight reel from the last year we took our students to camp:

The Novelty Collective ("NoCo") is a Christian 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization with a vision to "restore creation to its Creator." We provide free studio space, art supplies, & programming for creatives at our location just outside of downtown Pittsburgh, PA. Our Afterschool program serves dozens of local middle school & high school students, while our adult artist network extends all the way to the West Coast.

The Novelty Collective is a community for everyone, regardless of age, ability, belief (creed), gender, ethnicity, background, socioeconomic status, or identity.
