Get ready to explore the colorful world of famous artists from around the globe! This creative camp invites kids to experiment with styles inspired by Yayoi Kusama's playful dots, Dale Chihuly’s wild “glass” sculptures, and Henri Matisse’s bold paper cutouts. Through daily hands-on art projects, science experiments, math connections, and delicious culinary creations, campers will learn about the lives and legacies of five inspiring artists. From building hoop flyers and decoding art-based math puzzles to making edible sand art and collaborative murals, there’s something new to discover each day.
