Artcamp 2016
What:
Summer Art Camp is a morning program for 5-11yr olds. Art
projects are linked to games, stories, playful physical challenges and
experimentation with elements like water, sand, clay, bubbles, earth and air.
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!

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)

Read-
I am not going to take information by email rather by mail (paper). I
will send you a registration package that you can drop off or mail. Just send me an email to request one. When I receive a complete package your child
