🎨 Summer Art Camps 2026 



Creative Arts Camp - Drawing, Painting & Composition


Monday August 3rd - Friday August 7th, 2026
Time: 9:30am - 1:00pm
Ages 8-13
Tuition: $350


Discover the joy of seeing art in everyday life and objects. Learn to translate your ideas into visual form!

Students will learn to draw both realistic and abstract subjects, experiment with a range of materials (watercolor, acrylic, pastels, ink) and techniques (mixed media, collage, layering, overpainting), and create thoughtful and beautiful artistic compositions.

They will work in small groups in a supportive and creative environment. Each day will begin with a 30-minute drawing session, followed by guided art-making. Students will be encouraged to complete one artwork per day and develop a personal art-journaling book to compile their ideas, experiments and finished artworks!

For inspiration, participants will be introduced to the works of master artists such as Van Gogh, Picasso, Manet, Andy Warhol, and Jim Dine, whose art celebrates the beauty in nature and everyday objects.
 
Instructors: Preeti Singh and Mickey Waring


Printmaking and Needle Arts Camp

Monday August 10th - Friday August 14th 25, 2026
Time: 9:30am - 1:00pm 
Ages 8 - 13
Tuition: $350

Give your child a chance to unwind, get creative, and unplug from screens! This year, our popular Printmaking Camp expands to include exciting needle craft exploration.

Students will learn a variety of printmaking techniques to produce unique artworks based on their own original drawings. They’ll explore both additive and reductive printing methods using surfaces such as Styrofoam, aluminum, and gelatin plates. In addition, students will be introduced to needle craft—including embroidery and stitching—and discover how to combine it with line and color to create striking textured mixed-media artworks.

For inspiration they will look at the works of contemporary artists like Gwen Hedley, Rosie James, Faith Ringgold & Victoria Villasana who blended embroidery with painting to create rich artist expressions.
