ART IN THE GARDEN
Let's become inspired by nature...
We will not only be inspired by the fractal patterns and textures in nature but by the whimsical spaces one finds in the garden. Take a walk under an avocado tree or explore the berry bushes to find the magical homes of fairies and gnomes. Children will create their own renditions of these spaces as well as plant some herbs.
THE MAKERY LAB
Calling all inquisitive inventors...
This camp will focus on the process of making. A mistake isn't a mistake in art, its an expression of the process it took to get the end product. So lets get our hands dirty diving into all sorts of art techniques and mediums. From pottery to print making, textiles and beyond. Our Makery Lab will be lush with creative inventions.
MYSTERY SLIME & POTIONS
Is it metallic or fluffy or explosive? Let's put our experimenter googles on and find out!
We have been trying out all sorts of fantastic slime concoctions in our studio and now we are ready to pass these recipes on to our little experimenters. The week will also entail a mystery to solve and a volcanic explosion. Children will search for clues and evidence as they test out their slime making skills.
THE CAMP OUT
Sticks and stones won't break our bones...we use them to create!
What's the best part of the summer....Camping of course. We will be creating our own mini camp ground right inside Twirl. The week will entail tent making, nature scavenger hunts, star gazing-constellation maps, home made trail mix, team building activities and more.
TINKERING TWIRLERS
Motors, gizmos and gadgets oh my...
Our little engineers will explore new ways to use found objects. Dissecting toys, motorized contraptions, scribble machines, marble runs and more. Mini think tank sessions, group collaborations and experimentation with objects that fly, float and crawl will be part of our daily design challenges.
SOARING SUPER HEROS
Pow...Kaboom...Bam...
Twirlers to the rescue! Capes, cuffs, comics, cartooning and more. We will explore Andy Warhols influence through Pop Art, pose in the photobooth and save all from destruction.
WHIMSICAL WONDERS
What will our magic wands conjure up...
Wizard spells, fairy hideaways, castles and a dragons lair are just a few of the whimsical adventures we'll embark upon. We will take nature walks to collect sticks for weaving, build tee pees and paint sea shells.
Let's get messy with POTTERY CAMP!
Join us this summer in our new Pottery/Mosaic Studio! Pottery is the perfect tactile art to introduce to children. Our class will go over basic concepts of wheel throwing, hand building and bisque painting. We will further explore texture and pattern through mosaic art towards the end of our week. (ages:6y-12y)
WOOD WORKING CAMP
Time to get our hands dirty and put our problem solving to the test! Dexterity, fine motor skills and three-dimensional thinking all come together in the craft of wood working. Join us for some fun in our wood workshop. (ages:6y-12y)
