Cute animals, fantasy dragons & glowing surprises!

Does your child love cute animals and fantasy dragons? In this imaginative painting and sculpture camp, young artists will design their own magical creatures—and decide which parts will glow in the dark when the lights go out! (Bedtime suddenly becomes something to look forward to!)

Campers will paint, draw, and sculpt while learning new techniques and exploring their creativity. During our clay segment, children strengthen fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination, and spatial awareness while pinching, rolling, and shaping their creatures into life. Clay also encourages focus, problem-solving, and imaginative thinking.

With small class sizes and individual guidance, every child receives the support they need to succeed and build confidence in their artistic abilities.
