Summer art camp at the Museum is a must for any child age 8 to 18. In it’s 15th year, the summer art camp program sells itself because participants want to come back year after year. Every student becomes an artist for a week, and every student is nurtured and encouraged by highly skilled teachers. Look at the photos from past year’s summer art camps, and you will see why your child will want to be a part of this creative life-changing experience.
