summer art camp
June-August 2019Mon-Thurs 4-day camp, 9:30am-3pm
$190 per 4-day camp includes professional instruction and quality art supplies CREATIVE ARTS CAMPS Come and join our art adventure! Each week, explore drawing, painting, sculpting, fiber art, mixed media and more. The focus is on giving your child access to professional artists and quality materials to create art. Projects are inspired by your child's creativity; they will see daily artist demonstrations of painting, sculpture, sewing, and more, then create their own unique projects. Outdoor playtime at lunch and either a special guest or 1-hour swim time at Main Beach add excitement and variety to the weekly camps (see weekly descriptions for special guests & swim info). At the end of the week, families and friends are invited to a special camp art show where campers showcase what they have created. Campers should bring a peanut-free, dairy free lunch & snack each day, plus a bottle of water. Want to know more? Click to VIEW sample art projects and FAQ. |
