JUNE 12 - AUG. 25ONE WEEK SESSIONS | AGES 4 - 12

The Art of Expl ringNature, Myth

& Magic

Our Art Camp experience is anything but ordinary. During each week-long session, young artists will be introduced to a variety of age-appropriate materials, techniques, and concepts through imaginative projects inspired by the weekly theme and designed to tap into each child’s innate creativity. Creating alongside actual professional artists in actual artist studios, campers will explore

drawing, painting, ceramics, jewelry and metals, printmaking, digital media, and more, all while cultivating skills like critical thinking and problem-solving.

On Fridays, it’s time to shine as we celebrate our journey with our new friends at the Art Party and exhibition in the award-winning galleries.

Camp Structure Art Camp for 4 year olds is offered in half days from 9 - 11:45 am. Children ages 5-12 can register for a full day of camp from 9 am-3:30 pm, or half day camp from 9-11:45 am, or 12:45-3:30 pm. Need more coverage? Before care and after care are available to extend the day from 8 am – 6 pm, and lunch care is available for morning half day campers from 11:45 am-12:45 pm.

Camp is broken down into age groups with low teacher-to-student ratios to ensure individualized learning. Our vibe? Supportive, social, encouraging…and most of all fun. It is summer, after all!

The Art of Exploring: Nature, Myth & Magic Long live the curious! From enchanted forests where hobbits and gnomes dwell, to sunken treasure deep under the sea, to the far reaches of space, this year’s theme opens the door to an amazing summer of discovery and art-making. Whether our inspiration is rooted in the natural or supernatural, we’ll uncover new facts about these worlds as we create and make new friends. Each week a new adventure awaits you.

“The projects were unique and more than I expected from a summer camp. Some of the pieces are truly a piece of art that I am planning to save and display. My kids had a great time. They could not wait to go to the camp every day.”
