Week One: Time Traveling Artists

June 8 – 12

Last Day to Register: June 1st

In Time Traveling Artists, campers will journey across centuries of creativity to explore major moments in art history. Along the way, campers will explore the stories, techniques, and materials that shaped each era and create their own inspired masterpieces.

Throughout the week, we’ll experiment with a wide range of mediums such as painting, drawing, sculpture, and mixed media. Each day introduces a new time period and artistic approach. Projects include creating cave-inspired paintings, designing art influenced by ancient cultures, exploring the bold colors of modern art, and more!   

Join us on Friday, June 12, at 2:30 PM for a camp showcase, where family and friends are invited to celebrate and admire the incredible artwork created by the campers throughout the week!

Two sessions will take place throughout the week for two age groups: 6 to 9-year-olds and 10 to 13-year-olds. You can choose between full-day or half-day options. See below for more camp details, the schedule of classes, and how to register.

    Light snacks are provided twice daily — once in the morning and once in the afternoon. Campers attending only morning or afternoon sessions do not need to bring lunch but should still bring a water bottle.

    If your camper requires medication, please label it clearly in a sealed zip-top bag and make arrangements in advance with GDAC’s Education Curator, Jess Green.

    For our youngest campers, we recommend packing a backup change of clothes in case of emergencies.
