Kids' Art Camp
The Kids’ Art Camp (ages 5 - 12) fosters knowledge and appreciation of the visual arts through hands-on activities. Students will explore a variety of media, including: drawing, painting, ceramics, sculpture, printmaking, and three-dimensional work under the guidance of our highly qualified instructors. Since projects vary each week (even if the theme is the same) kids may register for as many weeks of camp as they wish. Each week classes conclude with an exhibition for parents/caregivers to view their child’s artistic creations.
Students are grouped into six different age groups. Some age groups overlap and some may vary slightly depending on the number of students enrolled in a particular group.
Monet: ages 5 - 6
Van Gogh: ages 6 - 7
Pollock: ages 8 - 9
Warhol: ages 9 - 10
O'Keefe: ages 10 - 11
Kandinsky: ages 11 - 12
If your child's age group is full, please call to be placed on the waiting list; do not register your child in a group outside his/her age range.
