Night at the Museum of the Bible — Teen Film Camp

Washington, D.C. | July 31 – August 5, 2026

 

During the production of our exciting new feature film Night at the Museum of the Bible, JC Films Studios is thrilled to host a special Teen Film Camp experience in Washington, D.C. — right at the Museum of the Bible!  If you are ages 14–18 and love faith, film, creativity, and storytelling, this summer camp is for you.

 

For the past four years, JCFilms Studios has hosted Teen Film Camp each summer, and it has become one of our most exciting and life-changing experiences. Every camper is cast and actively involved in a real faith-based film - learning, creating, and growing in a Christ-centered environment.

This year, we are bringing the experience to Washington, D.C. during the production of our new film Night at the Museum of the Bible, starring Lara Donaldson, Dean Cain, and Kevin Sorbo.

 

About the Film

Night at the Museum of the Bible is a family-friendly faith adventure where a group of teens discover that the Bible is not just history — it is living, active, and life-changing.
