Why should the kids at summer art camp have all the fun? Our resident artist will present two hands-on projects that will bring out your inner artist in a fun and accessible format. Learn about the processes people have used in the past to create items and give it a try yourself! We will be learning about two different methods of creation. All fun and no expectations of perfection! All skill levels welcome.
