StoryLab: Drawing Stories to Life

Ages 6-10
Instructed by Barbara Schlegel

Throughout the week, campers will invent characters, explore story adventures, and bring their ideas to life through drawing, painting, clay, and simple bookmaking.

Each day includes a blend of art-making, storytelling and movement to help children stay focused, energized, and open to ideas. Gentle stretching, imaginative movement, and breathing games are woven into the day to help bodies settle, ideas flow, and creativity feel fun and natural.

Children are guided step by step while being encouraged to follow their own instincts and interests. By the end of the week, each child will leave with a collection of original artwork, a picture-based story map, a clay figure and a finished handmade storybook.

Art Adventure
Ages 6-10
Instructed by Amanda Wallace

This spring break, students will “travel” the world, exploring contemporary artwork from near and far. Campers will learn about contemporary artists, the techniques they use, and the place they call home through hands-on projects. We will work in a variety of media to develop skills in drawing, painting, construction, and more. Through art, we will journey to new and exciting locales.
