A Room for Art

A Room for Art is a place to paint, draw, build, print, bind, glue and sculpt. Classes for children and adults are held in a sunny home studio in Arlington, MA. More than a room, it is time and space to work with your hands, enjoy materials and make your ideas concrete.

Location

A Room for Art is located in Arlington Heights at 115 Robbins Road. The Studio is down the driveway on the right side of the house.

Summer Art Camp 2013















What:
Summer Art Camp is a morning program for 5-11yr olds. Art projects are linked to games, stories and playful physical challenges. We do individual and collaborative work with a variety of 2D and 3D materials. The work is inspired by nature, fine artists, the materials themselves and each other. It’s summer and the aim is to get wet, dirty and  immersed in the elements!

Week 1 June 24-28
Week 2 July 1-5(no July 4)
Week 3 July 22-26
Week 4 August 19-23

The Art
Visit my blog for pictures of past projects and summer camp archives. It will give you an idea of the materials I use regularly  and the kinds of activities we do at camp. During Summer Camp we will do more with the outdoors and nature for inspiration. Each week will have a loose theme to tie the activities together. Some of the projects will produce products that we can play with outside. Some projects will be collaborative and others will simply be art to look at. There will be free time to experiment with materials.
The media will be a mixture of 2D and 3D.

I’ll let you know the themes later! (Not only do I need time to get it altogether, I also think that a theme does not tell a child what camp’s going to be like)

To Register: Send me an email with your name,  your child's name, birthdate, week of camp preference 1 and 2 and I will send you the contact form to send in with your deposit.
