June 26, 2012 > Summer Art Day Camps Summer Art Day Camps Submitted By Christine Bender Sun Gallery's week-long summer program for ages 6-12 will immerse the child artist in a holistic visual art education experience. Program hours are 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. with one day drop-in available during weeks that we have at least four students in full week art camp. There will be different themes each week. Daily guided discussions in the gallery teach children to think and talk about art. They visit our gallery art exhibit (at same location) to discuss the art and practice sketching. Curriculum is a direct, hands-on experience that explores two and three dimensional art forms, line, color, texture, space and shape. Projects may include drawing, painting, bookmaking, masks, fiber art, recycled art, paper mache, and sculpture. Children bring their own lunch each day with a healthy snack and water provided. A full week of classes, Monday-Friday, 9 a.m. - 3 p.m., is available for a fee of $225, or a one day drop in for a fee of $45 per day. Parents can register early with no advance registration fee, and payment must be made before the camp starts.
