Camp Art Stars is an extraordinary camp for extraordinary young artists! Each camp session, led by a professional art educator, is bustling with hands-on artmaking, experimentation with novel art materials, workshops with diverse professional artists, and fun collaborative learning experiences at the world renown Chrysler Museum of Art. At Camp Art Stars, process is valued over product and creative problem-solving is not only encouraged but also celebrated.

Marvel at the Chrysler Museum’s amazing works of art during this weeklong camp for young artists! Fabricate furry friends, mix modeling magic, paint proportional portraits, and create colorful collages while making new artsy buddies. Young artists will discover works of art in the galleries and find inspiration from the neighborhood nature. Camp Art Stars artists will show off their talents during the celebratory Art Show Friday.

Art Stars are asked to bring lunch and snacks.  All art supplies are included, along with either a Chrysler Museum T-shirt or apron.  We kindly ask Art Stars to wear their T-shirt or aprons daily to help support camp camaraderie and the security of all campers. Each day will feature artmaking, gallery visits, and outdoor playtime (weather permitting). Art Stars will check out the Perry Glass Studio noon demo to learn more about the exciting material.

For ages 9 – 12
