Summer Camp

Workshops are open studio and unscripted.  Makers will have access to an always-changing assortment of upcycled materials, craft materials and tools.  If there's a week that fits your schedule but the theme doesn't appeal to your kid, know that they will have the freedom to do with the available materials whatever floats their boat.  

*We will eat lunch and play/make art outdoors at Maplecrest Park (across the street), weather permitting.
