(Ages Entering 4th-8th Grades)
Get creative this summer at Fine Arts Camp! Explore your creativity and build your artistic skills in these one week camps. Each week provides campers with a progressive learning experience that emphasizes the creative process. Campers receive instruction in specific art media, time to plan and create and opportunities for discussion of the art with other campers and staff. Each week ends with an art show and reception where campers can show off their work to family and friends. Drawing, painting, drama, music, dance, murals, recycled art and mosaics are just some of the subjects that campers will explore. In addition to the time spent on site, campers will swim and take an art themed field trip each week.
