Arts Studio Summer Art camp offers children the opportunity to
experiment with a variety of media in a nurturing environment
which encourages each child’s individual self expression.
While our emphasis is on the creative process, children are encouraged
to realize their vision in the form of completed pieces culminating
in an art exhibit at the weeks end.
We
aim to to equip students with the technical tools they need to
express and articulate their own personal vision. Children will
develop their skills while learning to trust their inner creative
voice and intuition.
Campers
will create three art projects per week. The projects will be
inspired by art from all over the world. Children will learn
something about a regions art, history and culture through lecture
and discussion, and by looking at examples of its art, listening
to its music and art-making. Projects will include painting,
drawing, mixed media collage, sculpture, printmaking and paper
mache.
All
students must bring a bag lunch and a mid-morning snack. Students
can sign up for any combination of weeks. All materials are included
in the tuition.

Designers Fashion Camp
Ages 8-11 • Two Weeks, July 19-30 $900
Fashion
Camp is an exciting two week intensive program offering students
the opportunity to explore various arenas of the fashion world.
Students will be introduced to the elements needed to sketch,
design and sew their own clothing.
Students
will begin with learning to sketch the elongated fashion figure.
Then they will use that figure as a template to express their
designs. Next, they will create an ‘inspiration board’,
consisting of magazine clippings, fabric swatches and objects
of interest, which will become the basis for designing a 5 piece
clothing collection.
Once
created, they will spend a day exploring the garment district
in New York City and shop for fabric. The rest of their time
will be spent learning machine and hand-sewing basics, designing
a simple garment, creating a pattern for it, cutting it and sewing
it together! The 2 week session will conclude with a fashion
show and presentation to industry professionals. Students must
bring their own sewing machine. materials list |
