The Painting Lab

THE FUN

By beginning with a swirl of paint, children will learn, make their own decisions, and just create! Your child will be proudly showing you their art production in our Hall of Fame in the tour on the last day of camp.  

The painting activities in the camp are designed to be explored differently and they are enriching for a range of ages and skill levels. Your child will be introduced to different media and will be given options to practice on variety of themes and different challenge levels but with an emphasis on acrylic painting and water color. They will have fun exploring painting using brushes, stamps, foams, and even fingers!
