Art-chitecture – Young Architects Studio $550

Design. Build. Problem-solve.

Sketch, design, and build your own imaginative structure — a treehouse, castle, fairy house, tiny cabin, houseboat, or an invention no one has ever seen before.

Campers begin by sketching ideas and learning simple design planning. Teachers help them turn drawings into 3-D constructions using cardboard, wood pieces, natural materials, fabric, wire, and found objects. We demonstrate safe building techniques step-by-step: cutting, joining, reinforcing, and adding details.

Students work at their own level. Some carefully plan every detail; others discover ideas as they build. Teachers provide lots of individual help so even beginners can succeed.

As the week continues, campers add balconies, bridges, furniture, landscapes, and small characters. On Friday we combine the structures into a collaborative village and invite families for a tour and celebration.

Great for kids who:

• like building, Legos, crafting, or engineering

• enjoy hands-on projects

• may not think of themselves as “artists”

• want to make something they can really play with and display at home

Campers go home with their structure and design sketches.

Mythical Adventures – Scribble Art Workshop  $600

This camp is perfect for artists with vivid imaginations who enjoy assuming the characteristics of specific roles and acting out imagined adventures with others. We’ll spend the beginning of the week developing a collaborative story, assuming roles and designing sculptural props and hand-crafted costumes. For the later part of the week, artists will be given a “mission” to complete and work together both inside and outside the studio to accomplish their task. The end of the week will include a performance for families to see this adventure come to life in real time.

Comic Art & Visual Storytelling $550

Calling all young storytellers and artists!

Campers will experiment with drawing styles, characters, story panels and bubbles, while learning how to communicate ideas and emotions in unique ways.

All About Animals  $550

A week for animal lovers and hands-on makers.

We’ll explore animals through both art and making. Campers create drawings and paintings of animals and their habitats, then bring them to life using fiber arts — yarn, felt, wool, and fabric.

Students learn how different animal fibers (like wool and silk) become art materials and use them in fun, approachable projects: felting soft creatures, simple weaving, dyeing fibers, and creating textured artwork. We guide each step so beginners can succeed, while experienced artists can add their own ideas and details.

During the drawing and painting portion, we practice how to show fur, feathers, scales, and patterns using pencil, pastel, watercolor, and acrylic paint. Campers may work from photos, observation, or imagination and will create a series of artworks over the week.

This is an active studio week — campers move between drawing, painting, and building so everyone stays engaged and inspired.

No experience necessary. Teachers provide step-by-step help and individual support.

Great for kids who:

• love animals
• enjoy crafts and hands-on projects
• like texture and building
• prefer variety rather than one long project
• may feel unsure about drawing but like making things

Campers go home with:

• animal drawings and paintings
• a handmade felt or fiber creature
• woven or dyed fiber artwork
• sketchbook studies and experiments

Families are invited to our Friday art show and celebration.
