2023 Summer ART Camps

If you are new to The Create Everyday Classroom Summer ART Camps, please scroll down to familiarize yourself by reading GENERAL CAMP INFORMATION at the bottom of this post.

JUNE 19 - 23 ::::::::::: Artists and Their Animal Companions 

So many artists had animal companions they've written books on the subject.  Study classics such as Paul Klee, Franz Marc, Henri Matisse, Andy Warhol and current artists, Miroco Machiko and Kara Kramer. 

We will draw, paint, print, collage and use mixed media methods, creating our own interpretations of these artists' works in addition to developing favorite animal subjects of our own.

REGISTRATION IS CLOSED for June’s camp. 

Thank you.

JULY 17 - 21 :::::::::::::::::::::::: PLORK!

Corita Kent saw art everywhere and taught her students to look at their immediate surroundings as such.  This camp will involve daily walks with view finders and sketchbooks where we will find art in every day experiences.  

In the classroom, we will practice Corita Kent's approach to art making while practicing some of Kara Kramer's art making methods with painting, collage, hand lettering, mark making and simple animation.

* Corita Kent thought of play as work.  She believed work should also involve play. 

With this conviction, the word "plork" was born.

GENERAL CAMP INFORMATION

With eight years of SUMMER CAMP at The Create Everyday Classroom, rituals have been created that returning students look forward to every year.  In addition to visiting the museum (on Thursdays),  there is silly walk day (view videos here), water balloon day, balloons in the museum courtyard and popsicle day.

The Create Everyday Classroom Summer ART Camps are Monday through Friday, 9am - 1pm  Because of small class sizes, variations on lessons are easily provided when taking into consideration age, interest, and skill.  Camp sizes are small (10 participants) with an age range in each of 4 to 10 years.

Each camp is $295 per week.  A non refundable $150 deposit secures your child's seat with a balance of $145 due the Monday of summer camp week.  

Seat reservations may be made via venmo ( @Kari-Maxwell).  

If this is your first time enrolling, in addition to your payment, please email

createeverydayclassroom@gmail.com with the full name and age of your child(ren).

Students come prepared with their own mid morning snack, water bottle and lunch. We have daily picnics on the MCAD campus or in the Mia courtyard (weather permitting).
