It's All About Me!
In this fun, fast-paced art camp, campers will create self-portraits in a variety of artist’s media including photography, computer graphics, painting, collage, and more! No experience is necessary as we investigate (through art-making) what we know about ourselves, what we show about ourselves, and how our likes and dislikes paint pictures about us. Campers will take home several pieces of ready-to-hang artwork upon the completion of the camp!
Creative Crafts
In this hands-on exploration, we will engage in a range of traditional and contemporary crafts. Drawing upon an exciting variety of materials and techniques, we will create both functional and decorative artworks. Projects will include weaving, needle felting, basketry, batik, macramé, warm glass, ceramics, book making, jewelry design, and sewing. It will be a fun-filled adventure, sure to satisfy busy hands and creative minds.
