Past Youth Art Camps

Fall Art Academy

Mystery Bag Challenge Kids' Studio

These classes are sure to spark the creative spirit and produce some interesting and amazing works of art! Each day, students will receive a mystery bag of art supplies that must be put to use in some way in an art work of their design. Students will spend time planning their artwork and will have tokens that they can use to "buy" additional supplies to supplement what comes in their bag. At the end of the day, we will see all the different ways we've created using similar materials!

Paper Tube Holiday Ornaments

Students will create up to four adorable holiday ornaments out of simple paper tubes. The templates will include a fox, a saguaro cactus, a gnome home, and an owl. Students can create at their own pace in this relaxed workshop environment and explore the materials on hand. Everyone is sure to make at least one new favorite to put on the tree!

Kids' Art Studio - August 3rd - 6th

This summer's Kids' Art Studio will be an Encore! of our Artists in the Spotlight summer camps. We will take our inspiration from Shel Silverstein (Tuesday), Georgia O'Keeffee (Wednesday), Betye Saar (Thursday), and Ray and Charles Eames (Friday). Even though returning students may be familiar with the artists, the projects will be new. Unlike summer camp, students may attend one day, all four, or anything in between.

Artists in the Spotlight

We are happy to announce a full six-week roster of in-person summer camps this year for children ages 6-14. Each week we will explore a different artist in depth, creating works inspired by their medium, subject matter, philosophy, and life. Each 4 day camp will include a combination of two dimensional and three dimensional projects, and will be divided into a 6-10 year old age group and an 11-14 year old group. As always, we will learn a lot, play, explore, and expand our understanding of art and the world around us!

Summer Art Camp - Art Through the Decades

Join us this summer for an exciting journey through the twentieth century! Each week will bring an exploration of the visual art and popular culture of a decade (or two). We will take our inspiration from artists and art movements, popular trends in clothing, architecture, literature, theatre, film, music, and dance, as well as the historical and social forces that shaped each era. Each 4 day camp will include a combination of two dimensional and three dimensional projects, and will be divided into a 6-10 year old age group and an 11-14 year old group. For our 6-10 year old cohort, we are pleased to announce a partnership with the OSU Department of Theatre that will bring an added element of movement and performance to each week.
