Summer Art Camp 2008

Summer Art Camp at the Community Art Center offers a variety of opportunities for children ages 6 to 14 to create, explore and learn about art. The camp is held June 23 – August 8, with three two-week sessions and one one-week session. The program is scheduled from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., with an extended day option available. Students are grouped according to age, 6-8, 8/9-11 and 11/12-14.

Summer Art Camp includes workshops on drawing, sculpture, painting, clay and mixed media, taught by professional artists and art teachers. Students attend two 2-hour art classes in both 2-D and 3-D media each day. The first week of each session features museum visits with special group tours. Students in Session I will also enjoy daily swim time at the university's indoor pool. Students in Sessions II, III & IV will have afternoon ArtVentures - planned activities include guest performers, artists and teachers who will engage students in exciting projects, and special events relating to the themes of each session. Weather permitting, outdoor recreational activities will be included. An exhibition and reception featuring student artwork created during camp is held the last Friday of each session.
