Summer Camps, Youth

Let your child’s imagination this summer come to life at our Summer Art Camps! Designed for young artists Grades 5-8, our fun and engaging camps encourages self-expression while building foundational art skills. All supplies included! Students will explore a variety of drawing and painting techniques using materials like colored pencil, pastels, watercolor and acrylic paints. Guided by the instructor, campers will learn about color theory, composition, and different artistic styles while working on exciting projects inspired by nature, imagination, and well known artists. Each day includes hands-on activities, creative challenges, and plenty of time to experiment and play with new ideas. Students should bring their own water bottle and please provide sunscreen if needed. Some classes will have the opportunity to create art in our outside courtyard, weather permitting.
