Creativity thrives as campers explore their artistic abilities, play games, and make lasting friendships at Dutchess Arts Camp! Enjoy beautiful outdoor spaces, ceramic kilns, a theater, art studios, and other creative spaces!
The theme for Week 2 is Rainbows & Robots! In this week of camp, students will explore how "metal" and colors can become robots and rainbows! Teaching artists will guide students through retro robot dance moves, contrast color code paintings, animating their own rainbow parties, creating giant rainbow robots, and making mini ceramic robot friends!
Our experienced and friendly counselors and teaching artists support fun, hands-on art-making with various mediums including painting, sculpture, ceramics, collage, animation, and performance, based on engaging weekly camp themes. The pieces created at camp will portray your child's individuality, tapping into each camper’s specific interests.
A final showcase each Friday will display all of the campers’ artwork and show off their learned performances to friends and family. Daily schedules include opening and closing circles, structured art instruction, snacks, lunch, and outside play.
