Do you know someone, age 8 to age 14, who loves to play and have summer fun? Someone who likes to have creative new projects and to make new friends? Someone who wants to explore? Someone who loves to make art?
If you know just such a someone be sure to share the news…artCamp is coming to artCentral for two weeks, Mondays through Fridays, 10 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., July 11-15 and July 18-22, 2022!
Curriculum and registration forms will be available in late May. Registration opens June 13. Each class is $35.00 and includes all supplies and materials. Scholarships available upon teacher recommendation.
Registration and prepayment are musts. Be sure, artCampers, to register June 13, or soon after, to reserve the classes you want with your favorite teachers.
At Hyde House we have rooms full of art supplies and a surprise bonanza, too! Thanks to a generous donation from artCentral Member Mark Adams, we have bushels and bushels of gourds waiting to be transformed into art!
Naturally, the theme for this year’s screen-free artCamp is “Gourd-a-Rama and Lots, Lots More”, so there will be Gourd Art + Glass Art + Painting + Sculpting + Clay + Fibers + More!
Teachers, the time is now to get ready with your class proposals!

Yes, artCamp is coming—artCamp where uninhibited, lyrical children fill Hyde House with their love for art and with their art-making laced with laughter.
Our artCampers inspire us. They remind us that they are our legacy. They show us that they are our future. They compel us to teach and guide them with tenderness and commitment and compassion. Who we are and what we are as mentoring adults will surely live on through our children.
While we are teaching children they are teaching us. As our treasured, young sages, they remind us to look and see with eyes that are fresh and to create with hearts that are intuitive, inquisitive and curious. As grownups, though we are conditioned by experience and education, the heart of an uninhibited, lyrical child beats deep within each of us. At artCentral we love our artCampers!
