Teen Camps grades: 6-12
Summer 2018
Our Teen Camp is a great option for teens that love art and might be too old for, or bored by traditional day camps. Each one-week session will focus intensively on a single topic. Our goal is to instill in each camper the skills needed to continue to explore the subject independently.
Teen Campers should dress appropriately for art and bring a snack each day. Full-day campers should also bring a lunch to be escorted to lunch and their next afternoon camp. See Camp FAQ for more info.
Please note: Subjects listed are options - choose one subject for each half-day weekly session. Materials are included for all camps, except where noted in the camp descriptions.
Weekly Camp Sessions:
Fees: Half-Day $345; Full-Day $690
(week of July 4: $276; $552)
Extended Day Option:
8:30-9:30am (morning) $15/day
4:00-5:30pm (afternoon) $20/day
Please call the KAC office 232-4843 to register for extended day.
