The Enchanted Forest | Ages 5 – 7 | FULL

INSTRUCTOR: ALISSA MILLER | Meet the Instructor

Come be a part of a fantastic world that is filled with fairies, goblins, frogs, princesses and other creatures! We will read fairytales, A Midsummer Night’s Dream and other forest fantasies. Campers will be inspired by the fun language and characters used in these stories and use them as a jumping off point for creative dramatics and improvised scenes.

Charting Art | Ages 5 – 7 | FULL

INSTRUCTOR: ANNALISA CAMPBELL | Meet the Instructor

Spend a week charting the course of your art explorations! Campers will explore the Laurie Frick exhibition. As we map out our daily adventures, we will respond in a mixture of styles and media. Patterns will creep onto the canvas of our imaginations then into weavings, collages, prints and a collaborative installation art on exhibit in the Oklahoma Contemporary gallery.

Acrylic Mix Up | Ages 8 – 10 | FULL

INSTRUCTOR: TBA | Meet the Instructor

Analyze, texturize and improvise! Use the scientific method to hypothesize and experiment with acrylic binders, thickeners and liquid pigments to make your own acrylic paint. Texturize your paintings with gels and mediums then use the rainbow to paint non-objectively.

Back in Time | Ages 8 – 10 | $150

INSTRUCTOR: CARRI DOLAN | Meet the Instructor

Starting with the Egyptians and Papyrus, the history of paper and bookmaking will be the focus of this camp.

Story Quilts | Ages 11 – 13 | FULL

INSTRUCTOR: JACKIE PURSELL NELSON | Meet the Instructor

Campers will begin by discussing characters from their favorite books, movies or video games. They will sketch a plan and create a paper pattern before using fabrics of their choice to create a quilt based on a favorite memory. Students may bring fabric they want to use in creating their quilts.
