Calling all little masters! In this week-long camp we will learn about various Master Artists like Roy Lichtenstein, Vincent Van Gogh, Henry Matisse, Georgia O’Keeffe, and Salvador Dali. Each day we will bring a different artist to life as we learn about what made their style unique for its time and we will make our own little masterpieces based on their masterwork and techniques. We hope your child comes away from camp with a love and appreciation for the work of the masters while having fun exploring various art techniques that they can use in their own masterpieces as they grow and blossom as little artists.
