This week is all about the most direct material an artist can get their hands on, literally! We'll explore how clay works for making both functional and purely aesthetic sculptures. First, we'll make our own bowls using the coil method, then we'll make miniature house sculptures. Finally, we'll finish up the week creating our own mobiles with sculptural letters that make up our names! We'll complete the surface of all of our clay pieces with a choice of paint or acrylic glaze for some shine! Artists will leave camp with a foundational understanding of the qualities of clay as a material along with some really beautiful handmade containers and sculptures to share with family & friends at home!
Summer camp is one of our most beloved programs for campers, teachers and studio managers because of ALL the time we are able to dedicate to art-making and community building throughout the week. In addition to high-quality and multilayered art projects, our Dobbs Ferry camp includes walks in our nearby parks and playgrounds, collaborative outdoor earthworks and daily sketchbook challenges! At the conclusion of each week, families will be invited to an exhibit at the studio, where proud artists will share what they've created! You provide daily bagged lunch and we provide a healthy snack. This year, we're offering early drop off at 8:30am, late pick up at 3:30pm and extended day until 5pm. For artists who stay for extended day, they'll get an additional healthy snack, outdoor time and open ended art-making to finish up the day!
