The focus of our summer art camps and workshops is all about creativity and fun! No matter what path we end up taking in life, creativity expands our options and allows us a different view of the world around us. Our goal is to offer projects that encourage children and teens to use their imaginations, explore different mediums and develop practical skills as a maker of art.

Week 1: June 8–12

In The Garden

Young artists will explore nature-inspired art by creating colorful flowers, insects, and garden scenes using a variety of fun materials and techniques.

 

Week 2: June 22–26

Monster Mash

Kids will let their imaginations run wild as they design silly, spooky, and friendly monsters through drawing, painting, and mixed-media projects.

 

Week 3: July 6–10

Wild Safari

This week takes children on an artistic adventure where they’ll create lions, elephants, and other amazing animals while learning about patterns, textures, & color.

 

Week 4: July 20–24

Ready, Set, Go!

Inspired by movement and sports, campers will make energetic art featuring motion, action, and speed using bold colors and dynamic designs.

 

Week 5: July 27–31

Recycle Art!

Artists will turn everyday recycled materials into creative masterpieces while learning how art can help care for our planet.
