2022 Summer Maker CAMPS Announced!

A NEW offering to our great Summer Maker line up of events! A Makers Camp consist of one whole week of half day events with unique project that we build on each day, learning or growing our artistic skills, expanding our creativity, and becoming more familiar with using Makers tools. Each camp has a creative theme or artist technique we will be diving deep into. At the end of the week students will have many new works, along with new skills, to show for all their time at camp. 

Event Attendance 

Students can be dropped off for class up to 10 minutes prior to your scheduled class time and picked up at the designated camp ending time. We will provide a snack for all participants and take a short break during our half day. If your student would rather have a packed snack from home, you most certainly can opt to bring in your own. Students are encouraged to bring a bottled water to have with them at their working station. During Summer Camps students may be outside, so please be sure to apply sunscreen before they are dropped off.   

Cost

$145 – All Summer Maker Camps include materials and makers tools for creating our projects, as well as artist instructions from our teaching artists.
