During this week, Campers will focus on an array of artistic mediums and create a piece of art in each medium. Lessons include a brief history and examples of famous works in that medium. By the end of the week, campers will have their own mini-portfolio to share with family, friends, and teachers. Each week incorporates a special tour of the museum, guest instructors, artist demonstrations, nature walks, and time in the gardens. No previous art instruction is necessary.
Camp days run from 9 am–4 pm, with lunch and outdoor time (weather permitting) from 12 pm- 1 pm. Please note: Camp ends promptly at 4 pm and aftercare is not available.
Combining yoga with the art and creativity of color stories, children will explore the color wheel, identifying color stories in art, nature and their own experiences. Children will learn that colors are assigned to the body’s yogic energy centers (chakras) and corresponding yoga poses, how to incorporate color into the breath, and how to express themselves in color.
The iconic characters of Wonder Woman, Spider-Man, Batman, and Iron Man all came from the art form and phenomenon of comics. If your camper is interested in superheroes and villains, you won’t want to miss this week as we learn about these dynamic characters. Learn how to draw these figures in exciting action poses, develop stories lines, and even design your own characters during this exciting week of camp!
Ahoy there! This week we will sail the high seas in search of new lands, buried treasure, and deep-sea creatures. Campers will create pirate ships, deep diving mermaids, treasure maps, and more as they explore a variety of art media this week such as clay, oil pastels, and acrylic paint. You never know what surprises await on this artsy voyage!
This week is all about our favorite animated heroes, princes, princesses, and animals! We’ll explore well-known fairy tales and fables through creative art projects and storytelling. Campers will develop some of their own animated characters and even do a little role-play. Join us as we slip down the rabbit hole during this magical week!
Imaginations on fire! This week explore mythical creations such as dragons, castles, wizards, and more. Discover well-known myths of ancient cultures and create your very own fantasy creatures and faraway lands. Spark your creativity by investigating mysterious unexplored lands. Campers will model clay, paint with acrylic and watercolors, draw with oil pastels, colored pencils, charcoal, and use decorative papers for collage as they make colorful monsters, rainbow birds, and hybrid dragons.
If Art Camp is cancelled by the Hermitage Museum, we will issue a full refund. No refunds will be issued for any reason; however, if your child is unable to attend camp for any reason such as illness, exposure to illness, schedule changes, etc. and the Hermitage Museum & Gardens is given advance notice, the museum will make its best effort to get the spot filled by a camper on the waitlist. If the spot is filled by another camper, a refund will be issued minus a $10 processing fee. For any questions regarding summer camp, please contact Amber Pierce apierce@lowiv.com
