Artists in the Garden

Full—Waitlist Started

Week 1

Rising 1st through 3rd Graders

Monday, July 15, 2024 through Friday, July 19, 2024 — 9 am - 3:30 pm

Children tap their inner artist, learn new skills, and get a taste of using nature in their artwork.

Inspired by the Arboretum's various theme gardens, campers work with natural materials collected from the garden, paints, clay, and other art supplies as they create a new project each day.

With an emphasis on building confidence and observation skills, this camp concludes with an art show for camp families, a great way for children to show off what they've learned.

Campers bring a bagged lunch and snack from home.

Note: This week of Artists in the Garden camp will be the same activities as the Artists in the Garden Week 2 camp. Campers should NOT register for both weeks of camp since activities will be repeated.
