Class Experience

Whether you’re dreaming of a career in the visual arts or like to dabble in creative activities for fun, our camp will equip you with professional know-how to inspire your artistic endeavors. We create art based on imaginative topics and seasonal themes and we discover a huge range of art media in varying styles through different projects every day. So whether you love to draw, paint, or experiment with mixed media and 3D objects, you'll emerge with original pieces and exciting results.


Camp projects are based on a variety of inspiring subjects and seasonal themes like the Earth and other planets, space (think aliens, robots, spaceships, stars!), architecture, our beloved Brooklyn Bridge, the natural world, fantasy worlds, travel, modern masters, portraits, pop stars, and just oh so much more. We will also take inspiration and study techniques of famous artists to learn to employ these techniques in teens' art.


If your teen is allowed to self-dismiss, please add a note at check-out.


Have a million canvases lying around from your time at camp? Bring them back to us and we’ll reuse them!
