*This camp is only available for two week enrollment since we build our projects the first week, fire them over the weekend, and finish and glaze them the second week. This is also a class with important demonstrations first thing each morning. Please try not to schedule conflicting appointments.
Join us as we celebrate some of America’s most celebrated National Parks. We will create unique National Park posters, paint landscapes of some of the country’s most notable natural features, fill our National Park passports with camper-created stickers, make collages of some of our nation's most beautiful animals, and travel coast-to-coast through virtual field trips led by our National Park Rangers. You may sign up for just one "Art in the Park" camp, or both. There will be different projects each week. Register here.

Not so long ago, people went to the movies to be frightened and fascinated by Godzilla, King
Kong, giant ants, the “Blob”, werewolves, Dracula, Frankenstein, and scary robots. Early
animation techniques will be explored. Children will illustrate a couple of different types of
‘moving animation’, make our own monstrous, city-destroying creatures, create outlandishly
sized ants, try to recreate our own “Blob” to take home in a baggy with a carpet warning, and
make stylized movie posters. We will study Claymation, early works of Georges Méliès, stop-
motion moving pictures, and see how they put it all together pre-CGI. Way-out-of-date footage
will be briefly explored to gain understanding of these lost arts. Register here.
You can make amazing art with nothing but little dots of light! We'll do a week of computer-based art, making fantastic images with pixels on the screen. Still, pictures, moving images, and maybe even go old-school and combining modern computer tech with old-school paint and paper. FULL, but you can sign up for the waitlist. Register here.
Flower petals, blades of grass, leaves from a tree. All these beautiful pieces of nature can inspire us to create, and be used to make stunning art!
