Overview

This hands-on summer camp invites kids to explore science and art through daily deep-dives into sculpture, painting, printmaking, ceramics, and fiber art. Campers will create original work, collaborate on a public art piece, and showcase their creations at our end-of-summer Art Festival.

Each day will include a flagship project, free-choice creation stations, and outdoor water play—blending arts literacy, and environmental stewardship into a summer experience filled with fun and discovery.

FAQs

Also, check out the policies and procedures page for helpful details.

• Which week should I sign up for?

  Camps are organized by age/grade level. For example, if you have a student who will be enrolled in kindergarten in the 2026/27 school year (fall of 2026), they can attend the weeks of June 8 OR June 15.

• Can my student attend more than one week?

  We offer two weeks for the same grade-levels to give families more scheduling options. Your student could attend both, however, the flagship projects will be the same, both weeks. For example, your kindergarten student could attend both the weeks of June 8 AND June 15; They would make two of everything but have flexibility during outdoor, station exploration.

Notables: 

• RAIN- It won't rain on us, but the event is rain or shine! We will delay with thunder and lightning.

• Accommodations- Bring your own chairs and blankets for lawn sitting! There are trees, but an umbrella for shade is always a good summer idea.

• Deadline to RSVP-  AUGUST 1ST (This is very helpful for having a headcount!)

• How does my student get paid if their art is sold? Ideally, students can pick up their cash during the event from the sales booth. If students are not at the event, they can pick up their cash between Aug 10-14 from 9-4pm, at the studio.

• How do I pick up my students' art if it didn't sell? If students are not able to take their project home at the end of the event, they can pick up their project between Aug 12-15, from 9-4pm, at the studio.
