Week 1: Art in Response to the World Outside
and Within - July 2nd to July 5th, 2024 - ($200.00 Second Child $180)
This camp centers on observation, inspiring
young artists to create work based on what's close at hand. Through drawing,
painting, and sculpture, we'll depict our connections to ourselves, others, and
our surroundings. Traditional and experimental techniques will be used,
covering portraiture, still life, and landscape. Sculpture with materials like
paper maché and clay will teach form and texture in 2D and 3D. Mindfulness
techniques will fuel exercises in imagining characters and landscapes. We'll
delve into world-building, crafting characters and their environments.
Throughout, we'll study contemporary and historical artists, highlighting the
magic of everyday life.
Week 2: - Animation Lab - July 8th to July 12,2024 - ($250.00 Second Child $225.00)Get ready for an exciting journey into the world of
animation during this week-long workshop! We'll dive into the captivating art
of stop-motion animation, which has a fascinating history dating back to the
early days of filmmaking. We’ll embark on small-scale independent projects,
exploring camera-less animation techniques, two-dimensional animation collage,
and creating stop-motion puppets. Then, we'll focus on a collaborative,
longer-form stop-motion project. This project will be showcased during a family
and friends movie night at the end of the camp. Topics covered in the second
half will include storytelling, storyboarding, and bringing stop-motion puppets
to life. Get ready to unleash your creativity and bring your ideas to life on
the big screen!
