Campers learn all about STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art and math) projects and how all different fields of study can be applied to art. This Full Day Camp provides children with several levels of creativity. Our Student Campers will participate in 3 quality art classes: clay, mixed media and watercolor. There is also great educational and game activities between classes. We will have a mini art show on Friday to showcase the art created that week at camp.
