Below is a summary of this past Art Camp. Every summer we run a new set of creative projects!
Keep the creativity and learning flowing when school lets out. Our program allows children to explore and tackle new projects as well as experiment with new materials.
Our summer camp weekly experiences will be as follows:
June 7th-June 10th – Nature – Exploring all things nature, children will be guided to think of natural materials as tools to create pieces of art. Young artists will use several different mediums throughout the week.
June 14th – June 17th – Textile Arts – This week will be full of everything having to do with textiles and patterns. Children will be exploring a variety of technique like marbling, weaving, batiking, printing and tie dying.
June 21st – 24th – Sculpture – A wide range of objects and tools will be introduced to children. Clay, wood, and metal are just a few materials used to create a sculpted master piece.
