Explore global art through drawing, design, and painting. Young artists will visit the Museum galleries daily to sketch their favorite works of art. Back in the studio, their sketches will be used in lessons that explore different elements of design—line, color, shape, and texture—connecting what they see in the galleries to their own creative projects. This camp fosters outside-of-the box thinking, encourages self-expression, and deepens an appreciation for the arts.
