In this exciting camp, children explore drama, music, fine art, and dance, but they also have time for fun, non art-related games and activities. Each week campers are introduced to art masters, and use a variety of techniques and styles in projects such as comic book making, collaborative painting & sculpture. Campers also write, direct, and learn improvisation techniques, which they then use in a live performance. Guest artists lead a workshop or perform for campers each session. During Open House, held toward the end of each session, parents, friends, and neighbors can meet instructors and staff, visit the art gallery, and watch each child display his or her special talents at a live performance.

This camp is designed to stress the process of art making, rather than the final product or performance. We believe that non-competitive art activities allow for positive social interactions and personal growth for every camper.
