...just two more weeks of Summer Art Camp

Mini Monets? Check.
Wee Warhols? Check.
van Gogh-Go's...half check.
Rockin' Rembrandts...sixty percent check.

It is hard to believe Summer Art Camp is over in less than two weeks. The SAA has been planning Summer Art Camp since January, our instructors were crafting in February, and registration opened in March. Since then, it's been a flurry of excited and creative campers, inspiring projects, and an wonderful energy defused in our Condell Studio all summer long.

This week, we welcome our full-day campers, the van Gogh-Go's. We also have "Portrait Palooza," a specialized painting class that meets in the mornings for our sixth through eight grade students, the Rockin' Rembrandts. For the past three weeks, we had the Wee Warhols (Kindergarten through 2nd grade) in both the morning and afternoon, and kicked off Camp back in June with our pre-K Mini Monets.

Camp has been one of the most exciting and creative educational offerings at the Art Association for years; the instructors, the projects and the enthusiasm dedicated to the arts have never been more vibrant. As one camper said during the last session, "You make a mess, you make art, you make friends at Art Camp." We are so proud and endlessly motivated by that sentiment.

The enthusiasm for all things art continues into the fall! Young Artist Studios & Pottery are in full force for Fall classes that being September 27 (schedule and registration available August 23).
