School's Out
|
School’s Out is a day camp program for school-age children. It is offered on selected days that Columbia Public Schools and surrounding school districts are closed for Teacher Work Days. Home School children are always welcome too! During the day, participating students complete different art projects in various media (Ceramics, Fibers, and Mixed Media). Between the media blocks, they have time to play both indoor and outdoor games and enjoy snacks.
Designed with working parents in mind, School’s Out provides a one- or multiple-day solution to the scheduling conflict caused by Teacher Work Days. School’s Out offers parents an affordable, safe alternative to daycare. The rotating block schedule of School’s Out enables students to engage in a variety of creative learning experiences. Each day will have a different theme, and all projects created that day will relate to that theme. Camp runs from 8:00 am- 5:00 pm. |

Can I Make That?!
All art starts with an idea. Today we’ll explore how art can go from a crazy or silly idea to a finished piece. We’ll talk about famous works of art that may have seemed impossible at first, and how they were ultimately created. We’ll also work to invent our own pieces and together we’ll turn them into a reality.
