Discover with Drawing

Choose between a 1-week camp or a 2-week camp. Over the course of two weeks, artists will use the 7 elements of art and 8 principles of design to draw their own original artwork from observation, visual research, and imagination. Each artist is provided an art starter kit including sketchbook, pencils, colored pencils, pens, and erasers (all materials necessary to fully participate in the class).

Camp will be held daily, Monday-Friday, from July 18-22nd and July 25th-29th. Choose between two sessions: 9:30-11:30 am or 1:00-3:00 pm.
