Summer art instructors teach three age groups of children, ranging from kindergarten to 9th grade.  They use a variety of artistic media and techniques, including drawing, painting, papermaking, papier-mâché, printmaking, and more. Classes are kept small to encourage individual self-expression and safe outdoor exploration.

Each two-week art session cost $100, which includes all materials.
