Summer Art Camp for Kids (ages 5–9)
Monday–Friday, 10 AM–3 PM
For 2026, we are debuting two new camp themes—Sock Hop and Around Town—as well as fresh projects in our classic camp themes. Each week, kids work on 2D and 3D art projects inspired by the weekly theme in art media that may include painting, drawing, sculpture, and mixed media. Campers will be divided into limited-size groups based on age. If you have a friend or sibling of close age attending camp, and would like to have them grouped together, please request this during registration.

Animals & Wildlife Art
Monday, July 20 – Friday, July 24, 10 AM–3 PM
This week of camp is like taking a trip to the zoo, but so much more creative! Explore the exciting world of animals and their amazing habitats. Kids will create projects such as a colorful hummingbird in watercolor, an octopus in pastel, and a papier-mâché bumblebee.
