Check back soon for 2010 theme!

Theme from 2009: Join us for "Art with the Masters!" Learn to use a variety of media while working on a collection of projects based on such artists as Georgia O'Keefe, Andy Warhol, Picasso, Mondrian - just to name a few! Our new artists (ages 6-10) will display their works of art for our entire camp as well as their parents on Friday, July 10. Our camp program includes a daily free swim and outdoor excursions and activities as well as afternoon ice cream/popsicle snack and Art Camp T-shirt.

All activities are age and gender appropriate and each art project will allow our campers to discover new things about themselves.  We will work on projects such as:

  • charcoal sketching
  • tie dye
  • landscape drawing using a variety of markers
  • clay vases
  • designing beads and necklaces
  • create a portfolio of projects

We will also learn about:

  • brainstorming using our sketchbooks
  • color theory
  • shading, gradations, and contours
  • how emotion influences our works of art
  • art work from the masters
