Summer Camp 2012
Art à la Carte
Our Summer Camp encourages artistic expression and offers children an experience filled with creative energy. In keeping with our playful food and restaurant theme, Art à la carte, our “menu” of selections allows you to choose the week, or weeks, you want. Each week explores a different discipline through two- and three- dimensional projects in clay, drawing, painting, sculpture, architecture, etc. Along with the visual arts, all age groups will enjoy some performance art such as yoga, acting, and Improvisation.
