summer arts camp
...dedicated to arts education
About
Summer Arts Camp is...
a one or two week educational visual and performing arts camp, offering instruction to beginner through advanced students ages 3 to 14 years of age.
What Makes Us Different...
• Emphasis is put on the process (the skills learned) rather
than just the result (the show or finished product), giving
attention to the educational aspect of art
• Campers are not required to participate
in classroom activities in art genres that they are not
comfortable in
• Ratios of adult to camper are kept low for the safety and
individual attention of campers
• Parking is safe and convenient
• Camps are held in a facility dedicated to arts education
• Campers are exposed to many artists, giving them a broad
perspective of the arts
• Guidance is provided to help further campers' arts
education after camp has ended and throughout the year
• Camp counselors are CPR and First Aid certified
• Every camper receives a FREE t-shirt
• Other than tuition, there are no additional art fees or
registration fees
