CENTRAL THEME: Nature: the ultimate artist
During this three-week program discover how Art relates to Nature as you find fascinating colors, patterns, and shapes in the animal and plant kingdoms. Explore habitats and ecosystems of different species on land and sea and learn about their unique characteristics. Zebras, giraffes, tigers, leopards, turtles, birds, fish, butterflies and insects as well as trees, plants and flowers will be depicted using a variety of materials.
Create 2-D and 3-D pieces including drawings, paintings, prints, collages and sculptures and see how famous artists have represented the beauty in Nature.
Excursions to Best Lake (behind the building) provide campers with the opportunity to do artwork in a natural setting, weather permitting.
