Painting
Explore a colorful week with painting! Students will learn watercolor, acrylic, and mixed media techniques with a new theme each day to inspire imagination and build confidence. Ideal for all skill levels, this fun class encourages experimentation, creative risk-taking, and celebrating art.
Sculpture
Students will design a human figure that shows movement and energy. They will begin by building a wire “skeleton,” then add plaster to form the body. Once dry, students will paint their sculptures with acrylics and finish by adding creative accessories.
Speech
Students will come together to learn the ins and outs of improv and impromptu acting while rehearsing a script to perform on the final day of camp. This course is great for those interested in joining speech club, drama club, or just enjoy theater in general.
