Humor Camp 2026

October 8-11, 2026 in Jamestown, New York – home of the National Comedy Center and the Lucy Desi Museum.
Humor Camp is not a program of the National Comedy Center.
Humor Camp is an informative, mindful, social and spiritual humor retreat held in a unique setting that is creatively dedicated to developing a deeper relationship to laughter; the universal, human connection.
Stay tuned – Humor Camp will be hosting events in other cities, too!

To Laugh – To Learn – To Connect – To Earn (CEU’s, that is) – To Lead yourself (and others) toward using Humor with greater understanding, increased confidence, safety, precision and lasting impact as we strive toward creating a better world.
