Mixed Media Camps are two-week programs that offer young artists an opportunity to explore a variety of visual art media in the mornings and performing art techniques in the afternoon, complemented by field trips and outdoor play. Campers produce original works of art, discover the creative process, and cultivate new skills under the guidance of professional artists. Every session is unique.
