EDUCATION

Art Camps for Children

Each summer the Museum hosts four extraordinary art camps offering unique opportunities to encounter art for children ages 6 to 13. In addition to one of a kind art experiences, children learn about the museum, our exceptional exhibits and enjoy the outside greenspace surrounding the museum. These camps are extremely popular and fill up fast so register early!

This four-day camp introduces students to American artists Wolf Kahn, Robert Rauschenberg, James Audubon, and French-American artist Nikki Saint Phalle. We will try our hand modeling the brilliant pastels of Kahn’s landscapes, experiment with the totally awesome printing and stenciling techniques of Rauschenberg, become up-close painters of live animals, and create our own wild, colorful paper mache figures inspired by Saint Phalle.

ARTrek Camp - Make your Mark
August 9 - 12, Mon – Thurs, 10 am – 2 pm, ages 6 - 13
Knock your socks off contemporary art is on tap for this art camp! There’s more to silk screening than t-shirts as we will find out when we learn the basics of silk screening and design red-hot geometric art works inspired by Auguste Herbin and Alexander Liberman. Then we will ignite the imaginations of young artists as we explore the experimental painting techniques of spattering, scraping, and scribing as well as photo transfer techniques to create stunning works of modern art.
