Eco-Art Camps

About:

Art meets science in Artist Boat’s 2021 Summer Break camp sessions! Campers will experience true science and art enrichment with the creation of Eco-Art. Each camper will create high-quality art projects, which illustrate all that they have learned throughout camp. Each week is a different theme. Come for one or all!

Be prepared to spend all day outside!

We will be spending all 7 hours of camp in a non-climate controlled barn and outside. Please have your camper dressed appropriately for the weather.

What to bring:

• Show up wearing shoes for walking outside. NO Flip flops, Crocs, or Rainboots!
• Bring at least 64 oz. of drinking water, lunch, and snacks, NO sodas
• Signed waiver
