ARTISTS IN WONDERCAMP: SPRING BREAK

Come join us for an art-filled Spring Break!! Artists in Wondercamp is an art program designed to introduce elementary and middle school students to contemporary art through inquiry-based learning, open-ended discussions, hands-on studio art experiences, and interactions with professional artists.

Students explore meaningful ideas and processes that help them investigate the world around them through the elements of art while, most importantly, having lots of fun. Different themes and media are explored with an emphasis on the process over the final product to allow creativity to flow freely We’ll begin each day with mindful body movement & yoga. For ages 7-12 years old.

Using our 2D art as a blueprint, students will then fabricate and breathe life into their creatures by making a three-dimensional sculpture using a variety of materials including polymer clay, papier-mache, and fabric.

We’ll explore each step of this process: from the initial design, preliminary sketch, to the finished sculpted creation. We’ll look to myths and legends, fairy and folk tales, pop-culture, and contemporary artists for inspiration.

Art is a messy business, so please dress appropriately!
