SUMMER CAMP - Safari Adventure Art Camp (Ages 5-12) - July 20 – July 23 9am-1pm
Instructor: Michelle Isaksen

Grab your binoculars and get ready for a wild creative adventure! In this safari-themed art camp, young artists will journey into the jungle and complete a full acrylic canvas masterpiece each day while building foundational painting skills in a fun, encouraging environment.

Camp begins with a special self-portrait “Young Explorer” project, where students will paint themselves as safari adventurers. Throughout the week, artists will create vibrant wildlife paintings including a playful sloth, a majestic lion, and a bold blacklight toucan that glows!

Each day also includes a themed hands-on craft project to complement the painting, along with team-building games and outdoor activities on the lawn. We love mixing creativity with movement, laughter, and connection to make camp both inspiring and energizing.

No experience needed — just imagination and a sense of adventure.

Campers should bring a picnic-style lunch each day. A light snack will be provided.

Spots are limited and early registration is encouraged.
