Summer Craft Camp
Every summer, Laurel Street Arts offers a
summer craft camp for kids entering grades 2 through 7. We always
have at
least one pottery painting project as well as one mosaic project and
one glass fusing project. Additionally, we will work on many different
types of crafts, varied from week to week and geared specifically
towards the group of kids in each session. The crafts vary from soap
making to glass painting to working with polymer clay to weaving. In
the past we have made totem/spirit poles, styrofoam creatures, polymer
clay clocks and toys, decoupage plates and boxes, masks, painted pot
holders and much more. Our older kids even get to try their
hand making silver clay jewelry!
Crafts are chosen depending on
the kids participating. We try to offer crafts for both girls and boys,
using all types of materials. Kids will work on two to four projects
per day.
NOTE: Even if Summer Camp doesn't
work for you, the
studio is still open for drop-in artists!

For kids
entering grades 2-7, these sessions are great for siblings to
attend together. We’ll be painting pottery, glass fusing, making mosaics
and more, with lots of help for the younger kids and a little help for
the older ones. Sessions are 3.5 hours long with a break for lunch and
cost $255, including tax. (Note: Session A* is only 4 days and $205.) |

2-5, $235/week, 9:30—12:30

Geared
specially for the
older kids (grades 6-7), we’ll have some projects that can’t be done
with younger kids, including making pure silver jewelry! These 3-hour
sessions start after lunch, leaving us plenty of time to focus on
each project. Cost is $285 (including tax). |

Note: While the curriculum may be repeated
from week to week, the individual projects may
change somewhat so repeat artists can have a
varied experience. Artists may not, however,
attend more than 2 weeks per summer.
All
Sessions are "Dress
for Mess." We will be getting messy! Artists
should wear clothes that can be
stained and get wet (old shorts, t-shirts and sneakers are the best.)
We will start accepting registrations February 15, 2012. Register
before May 1, 2012 for a $5 discount per child
per week. Registration
is on a first come, first served basis. We will have a waiting
list for full sessions and will fill the classes from the earliest name
on the list. A 25% non-refundable
deposit is required to hold a space with the balance due at the first
class. Sessions that do not meet minimum enrollment may be cancelled
with a complete refund of deposit. No refund of tuition (or portion
thereof) will be granted for absences. We do not pro-rate sessions or provide make-up classes.
Prices
include cost of all project materials. Artists attending Session A should bring their own lunch and drink. Laurel Street Arts
reserves the right to change the curriculum.
