Step into a week of slow, thoughtful creativity inspired by the natural world. In Nature Makers & Earth Art, young artists will explore materials from the earth and create meaningful artwork using nature as both their canvas and their muse. Artists will experiment with botanical printing, press leaves into clay to create handmade bowls, weave with natural fibers, and design found-object sculptures using sticks, stones, and other natural treasures. We’ll also nurture creativity and curiosity by creating mini terrariums or planting seed starters for artists to take home and grow. This camp encourages mindfulness, sensory exploration, and a deeper connection to nature—perfect for children who love being hands-on, curious, and creative. Projects are process-based and open-ended, allowing each child’s work to be truly their own.
