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.
Perfect for curious minds and creative spirits, participants in Myths & Legends will explore stories from cultures around the world.
