Summer camp kicks off on June 13 and runs for two weeks, offering ART stART half-day morning camps for ages five and 6-year-olds where campers will get the opportunity to discover a variety of techniques and materials while having fun.

Teens ages 13-17 will have half-day intensive studios where they will focus on a particular media, for example, pottery, painting, drawing, etc.

Teens will work with teaching artists to refine their interests and skills and learn new tips and techniques. This is open to students of all skill levels and interests

Cultural Camps for ages 7-12 are all-day camps based on the following themes:

Session B: June 27- July 8 – no camp on July 4
