Summer Clay Play: Getting creative with the magic of mud and your imagination!
We’ll be taking the work out of artwork this summer with fun and creative ceramic building
games, as well as group and individual projects. The kids will do what they do best; learn
through play, exploring what they can do with clay! • Jodi Miller

Mixed-Media Studio Art
Using an expressive approach we will work from life and our imaginations so get ready to jump
in and try some new techniques!
Draw, paint, print, cut, glue, and collage! We will have fun making unique works of art and being
inspired by each other.
Each camper will hand-make an art journal to take home, too! • Shelly Korte

Paid Student Interns (ages 15-18 ) will help in classes.
