Where Every Camper Becomes an Artist

Our Fine Arts Specialty Camp invites campers to immerse themselves in a full week of creative expression as they explore a wide range of artistic mediums. Throughout the week, children will learn foundational techniques used by real artists while discovering their own unique style. Inspired by the works of famous artists such as Van Gogh, Frida Kahlo, Monet, Picasso, Alma Thomas, and Keith Haring, campers will learn about art history while creating their own masterpieces on real canvas and sculpting materials.
