ArtTastic Summer Camp
All camps are open to school-age children (ages 5 and up).

Please note that the camp prices vary from week to week, to accommodate special project costs. Camp days are from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day. Half-day Adaptive Camps are available the weeks of July 10 and July 17. Mornings (9 a.m. - 12:30 p.m.) will focus on Fibers and 2D projects. Afternoons (1 - 4:30 p.m.) will focus on Clay and 2D projects.
Rivers and Tides - July 2-6 (no camp July 4) $160 per child
This week’s theme is inspired by sculptor and earth artist, Andy Goldsworthy. Join us as we learn to work with nature to create art inspired by water and our beautiful rivers, seas and the ever-changing weather. Take some time to breathe and listen. Observe the colors, sounds and cycles of the natural world to find inspiration in this week-long immersion in the creative process. No camp on July 4, in observation of Independence Day.
Paper, Paper Everywhere - July 9-13 $220 per child; Half-day Adaptive camp $95 per child
Come and learn about the origins of a material that changed the world. Today paper is everywhere, but wouldn't you love to learn how paper is made? Try your hand at making different types of paper with natural and recycled materials then get inspired with a variety of mediums on the paper you make! We'll let you write the book as you explore printmaking techniques, bookbinding, journaling, calligraphy and origami with awesome instructors in this week-long, page-turning edition of art camp.
Half-day Adaptive Camps are available this week for those children who have disabilities or who just prefer a shorter day.

Connect with a world before technology and learn how the first-known art was made!

Around the World - July 23-27 $200 per child

Each day we'll look at the pottery, painting, carving and textiles of one fascinating country.
