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

With concerns over coronavirus, we are offering several options for attending class this summer!  So you can still be creative even if it is done from home.  As you register, choose whether your student will attend class Virtual Only, In Studio Only or indicate that you are Flexible.  Flexible means you would like to reserve a seat in studio, but will participate virtually if in studio classes are limited or not an option as mandated by the CDC or government. If you have question on how Virtual class works, check out our recent post here.

Please read the options below carefully so you can make the best choice for your student and family.  We have made changes to our class structure to help everyone participate whether, in studio or virtually. 

Virtual Class Only $38 – Choose this option if you only wish for your student to attend class virtually. Supplies packets will be mailed ($8.75 shipping fee) or available for local pick up. Packet will include the majority of needed supplies with basic supplies like scissors, glue, markers and crayons being supplied at home. Students will receive a link to meet their teaching artist and other students in our virtual classroom.  If you do not see a virtual class option, that means that this class cannot be completed virtually.

In Studio Class Only $45 – Choose this option if you only wish for your student to attend Summer Maker Day at our Travelers Rest location AND do not wish for them to attend any type of virtual class (even if the mandate to meet in large groups is still in effect).  All Summer Maker Days include materials for creating our projects, makers tools, and artist instructions on techniques. Please send your child with a bag lunch and drink.  We do offer the option to purchase lunch on the day of the event for $8, choices include peanut butter & jelly or grilled cheese, fruit and a water.

Flexible Class $45 – Choose this option if you would like to reserve a seat at the studio for your student, but will participate virtually if In Studio is not an option as mandated by the CDC or government. We may be asked to limit the number of students in our facility, in which case, in studio participation will be first come, first serve based on your date of registration.
