Camp Winnarainbow is a circus and performing arts camp for all ages, founded and run by Wavy Gravy. The camp adjoins the Hog Farm commune near Laytonville, California.

Classes that campers can attend include trapeze, juggling, improvisation, tightrope, gymnastics, acting/drama, unicycle, stilt walking, (in some sessions) clown philosophy, art, and magic. Campers are given total freedom as to which classes they want to attend on a daily basis.


The camp has ties to individuals and organizations from the founder's counter-culture background. Danny Rifkin, a former co-manager of the Grateful Dead, has served on the camp's board and the camp has received funding from The Bill Graham Foundation.

The main camp is for children ages 7-14, and runs for 1 week in the "A" session and 2 weeks in sessions "B" through "E". Camp Winnarainbow also runs a program for adults who have "forgotten how to lighten up and let loose," and a program for teenagers ages 15-17.
