This exciting Summer Camp is designed to develop students' appreciation and understanding of the visual arts. With a low student-teacher ratio, classes are geared toward each student's individual level of achievement and offer three age-appropriate levels of learning. A balance is sought between preserving the child's natural creativity and providing the skills and discipline necessary for deeper expression to unfold. Teachers are highly professional art educators. 

Activities include:
• Visits from special guest artists
• Multicultural art curriculum
• Fun and educational art projects in various media
• Social interactions through presentations and class exhibitions
