ABOUT ARTSCAMP Dear ArtsCamp Families,

Welcome to another summer of creativity at ArtsCamp! We appreciate your interest in and support of our youth programs, and we’re excited to share what’s in store for this summer.

You may notice several changes to our camp offerings this year - the largest of which is the age requirements for Little Campers programs. This summer, parents of 2nd graders have an option to send their children to Little Campers or some ArtsFocus sections. With this change, we hope to accomodate more students in terms of social comfort, skills, and maturity level and to create more camp opportunities for all age groups.

There are also several new camps on our schedule this summer.

Be sure to check out Animal Portraits, Handstitching & Fabric Arts, and Theatre Games for ArtsFocus campers and some new themes for Little Campers sessions. New camps for 7th-12th grade artists include Mending & Remaking, Natural Dyeing, Drawing & Design Essentials, and a twoOne-week camps week Ceramics Intensive. (except week of July 1-3):

little campers

for campers entering grades K-2

Little Campers are one-week camps designed to make campers in the first half of elementary school feel right at home. Small classes, fabulous teachers, and arts activities based on a new creative theme each week allow for lots of exploration and imaginative play. Camps may include a combination of visual arts, music, movement, and drama, along with games and story time.

Morning and afternoon sessions have the same weekly theme but do not repeat content.

Lunchtime supervision provided for all campers at no additional charge. Sessions are available 9:00 AM-Noon, 1:00-4:00 PM, or 9:00 AM-4:00 PM.

Week 1 (June 17-21): Magical Forest We’ll make arts, crafts and performances inspired by our natural environment: mountains, lakes and forests. From earthworms and insects, to rainbows and waterfalls, we’ll cultivate creativity and harvest fun using natural materials. Dig in!

Week 2 (June 24-28): Art Safari Look... a herd of giraffes on the horizon! And a hippopotamus in the water! We are art explorers of new landscapes: jungles, deserts and rivers. This camp will be filled with multi-media, sensory projects inspired by wild places and things.
