EVERYTHING CLAY AND PAPERMAKING & MIXED MEDIA (ages 10–12) (WAITLIST ONLY)
August 5–9, 10 AM–3 PM
Everything Clay: This camp is perfect for the tween looking to explore various types of clay. During the week, tweens will get to use the pottery wheel to throw and embellish a functional ceramic piece that will be glazed and fired in the kiln. Tweens will also learn the techniques for working with paper clay from building an armature to give the clay structure to ways to decorate their creations using paint, decoupage, or other materials. Finally, tweens will explore polymer clay by making everyday objects in miniature.
Papermaking & Mixed Media: Open up a world of possibilities with mixed media! In this camp, tweens will start by learning how to make paper and then use it as the basis of their mixed media project. They will learn techniques such as layering paper, mono-printing, and collage. Teens will have the choice to use interesting materials such as yarn, fabric, dried flowers, pages from old books, paint, and more to create their mixed media artwork.
ASSEMBLAGE AND ESSENTIAL DRAWING & PAINTING (ages 10–12) (WAITLIST ONLY)
August 5–9, 10 AM–3 PM
Assemblage: Tweens will transform everyday items into expressive, personal sculptures! Imagine all the artistic possibilities in combining materials such as paper, plastic, clay, and wire with found objects. Through demonstrations and hands-on practice, tweens will learn various techniques to manipulate the materials and create one-of-a-kind sculptures.
Essential Drawing & Painting Techniques: This camp is perfect for the tween looking to develop the foundational skills of drawing and painting. Tweens will use their observational skills and gain familiarity with diverse media—such as graphite, charcoal, acrylics, and watercolors—through drawing exercises that may include gesture drawings, blind contours, and contour drawings.
