CourseGraphic Summer Art Camp for Tweens (ages 10–12)
Monday–Friday, 10 AM–3 PM
This offering is for young artists ready to graduate to the next level of art camp, where they will explore art media and techniques in greater depth during two daily studio sessions. Our talented teaching artists will guide tweens in developing their own personal style while they learn and refine their art skills.


Painting with Pastels and Soft Sculpture

July 24–28, 10 AM–3 PM

Painting with Pastels: Pastel straddles the line between painting and drawing. During this camp, tweens will be introduced to the essentials needed to draw and paint using pastels. This will include fundamentals such as drawing, light and shadow, composition, color theory, and basic perspective. Both still life and landscapes will be the subject matter for finished works of art.

Soft Sculpture: This camp takes the best of fiber arts and sculpture and merges them into a whole new art form: soft sculpture! Using textural materials such as felt, fibers, and notions, along with imagination and creativity, campers will design, prototype, and create both relief sculpture and sculpture in the round. Being able to sew is a bonus—but not necessary! —since multiple methods of soft sculpture construction will be covered. Tweens will create several projects ranging in scale over the course of the week.
