The Happy Campers Project
The Happy Campers Project is our summer camp for students in ages 6-14. The classes are offered for two different age groups so their learning experience is more intimate and successful!
What is The Happy Campers Project?
Visual Arts Classes
This year's theme is Passport to Imagination where students will find inspiration from cultures throughout the ages! In Adventures in Art: Multimedia, students will create two and three dimensional art using a variety of mediums, and students in Ceramics will hand build their creations. Classes will be taught by Kelly Downes, Carol Horst, Tiffany Johnkoski, and Helen Towner.
Music Class
Keeping with the theme, Passport to Imagination, Strings with Steele is an adventure through music of the world. Learn about the history and similarities of string instruments around the world. Make them! Play them! Develop or reinforce foundations of playing music and have fun making music together! NO PRIOR MUSIC TRAINING NECESSARY. This class will be taught by Jesse Steele.
