Camps

Remember when summers were long stretches of unscheduled time? What better use of that time than to explore your creativity!

Children rising into 3rd-8th grade can join museum educator and artist Jennifer White for this summer’s Art Camp and spend some time learning from professional artists and playing creatively in several different mediums.

Each day we visit with a different artist, either at their studio space or at the museum, to learn about their work. The students get to see the artists artwork, learn how they do what they do, and ask questions.  When we return to the museum center, students spend the afternoon creating a work of art using the skills and techniques they’ve studied at the studio.

Past artists and projects have included Josh Coleman’s sculpture studio at The Old Woolen Mill, potter Michael Lalone and the Lee University pottery studio, architect Doug Caywood and the historic buildings of downtown Cleveland and more.
