SUMMARY:Summer Art Camp\, Week 3
DESCRIPTION:Kids (ages 5–9)\nMini Masters\nJuly 5–9\, 10 AM–3 PM\nKids become mini masters while experimenting with art media and techniques used by famous artists. Create a sculpture like those made by Picasso\, design a mixed media work based on Alma Thomas’s paintings\, and paint in watercolor-like Rousseau. \n\n\nIn-Person Saturday Art Camp (Ages 6–9) \nExplore a variety of art media and creative themes over the course of six Saturdays. On each date\, campers will create two projects. Featured project themes will include Mini Masters\, Animals & Wildlife Art. Color Explosion. Creative Creatures\, Art Around the World\, and Art & Nature. \nJuly 10 WAITLIST ONLY\nAll Six Sessions \nTweens (ages 10–12)\nFashion Design Illustration and Soft Sculpture  WAITLIST ONLY\nJuly 5–9\, 10 AM–3 PM\nFashion Design Illustration: Learn how to bring your fashion dreams to life through illustration! Tweens will learn the basics of fashion illustration such as drawing proportional figures\, garment illustration techniques\, and fabric rendering. Students will learn how to create a collection of fashion illustrations employing drawing skills learned during the class and from their own creative design ideas.\nSoft Sculpture: This camp takes the best of fiber arts and sculpture and merges them into a whole new art form: soft sculpture! Using textural materials such as felt\, fibers\, and notions—along with imagination and creativity—campers will design\, prototype\, and create both relief sculpture and sculpture in the round. Being able to sew is a bonus\, but not necessary since multiple methods of soft-sculpture construction will be covered. Campers will create several projects ranging in scale over the course of the week. \nDigital Pop Art WAITLIST ONLY\nJuly 5–9\, 10 AM–12:15 PM\nUsing our fully equipped digital lab\, tweens will use Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom to explore the world of digital pop art. During the week\, tweens will learn how to turn ordinary images into outrageous pop art by simplifying their image of choice into a simple contour drawing\, and then letting their imaginations take the reigns by adding original combinations of color and design. Upon completion\, student work will be printed for display. Students must have a portable storage device\, such as a thumb drive\, as a backup for saving their progress in class. \nTweens (ages 10–12)\nExpressive Ceramics & Mixed Media Collage and Drawing Portraits\nJuly 5–9\, 10 AM–3 PM\nExpressive Ceramics (3 day): Teens will learn the fundamentals of hand-building\, wheel throwing\, and applying glazes while creating expressive works of art in clay.\nMixed Media Collage (2 day): Utilizing a variety of materials\, teens will investigate different approaches and techniques to the art of collage. Materials may include textiles\, magazines\, scrapbook paper\, and construction paper\, as well as campers’ own photographs or hand-painted paper.\nDrawing Portraits: Take your observational drawing skills to the next level! Teens will draw directly from a life portrait model\, focusing on the features of the human face. This camp will explore light and shading\, allowing teens to gain a better understanding of the facial structure through demonstration and drawing exercises. \nDigital Pop Art\nJuly 5–9\, 12:45–3 PM\nUsing our fully equipped digital lab\, teens will use Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom to explore the world of digital pop art. During the week\, tweens will learn how to turn ordinary images into outrageous pop art by simplifying their image of choice into a simple contour drawing\, and then letting their imaginations take the reigns by adding original combinations of color and design. Upon completion\, student work will be printed for display. Students must have a portable storage device\, such as a thumb drive\, as a backup for saving their progress in class.

SUMMARY:Art and Personal/Collective Wellness with Melissa Diaz
DESCRIPTION:Artist and board-certified art therapist Melissa Diaz will reference the creation of community art initiatives and the concept of collaboration to discuss both professional development and personal and community wellness. Diaz will speak about her journey as an art therapist\, how it intersects with her art practice\, and art as a tool for social activism and empowerment. She will also share the importance of letting your art therapy training impact your artwork and vice versa\, acknowledging the mutuality of impact as a source of developing one’s framework. She will share examples from her community art initiatives\, clinical and academic programming\, and practical information on current sentiments on the field of art therapy and the incorporation of wellness practices in other creative capacities. \nClick here to register.
