Kids will create a suit of wonder that takes clothing assemblage and ingenious noise-making to unknown horizons. Performance in suits will take place on last day of camp. Earth Works Art Camp Aug. 8-12 Artist Andy Goldsworthy has inspired a movement that uses the earth as his medium. Come explore the mediums of the earth and water as we collect and assemble earth matter into natural creations. Allowing us to experience the natural world in a hands-on, artistic way. Projects will take place out doors around Skinner’s butte and surrounding park areas. Art works will be allowed to live their lifespan in nature for all to admire. A slide show of the week’s creations will be posted online for students and families to admire. Recycle Scouts Camp Aug. 15-19 Learn everything about recycling! What is and is not recyclable. What’s our stuff made of, how and why we can create a cleaner and greener environment. This hands-on camp is intended to heighten our awareness of all things that go into waste, whether it is trash, recycling or compost. We will make re-use art that teaches ourselves and others how to create a cleaner and greener tomorrow. DIY Camp Aug. 22-26 We know DIY means do-it-yourself, but everyone has help along the way! In DIY Camp will learn how to use the common tools of the trade, fix and mend neglected treasures, and really conquer the battle of creating the solutions, and learning the skills that allow inspiration to flourish. Come to camp with a project in mind and we will tackle it, or find a new project to begin. ART Camp Aug. 29- Sept. 2 What is better than Art Camp? Five straight days of art making at MECCA!
