Camp Details:
Enrollment Deadline: Friday, May 25, 2012. Payment is needed to guarantee your child’s spot. How it works: Campers will choose up to 4 classes per 2-week session, according to their age group; Creative Kids: ages 7-10 and ARTS U: ages 11-14. Your child will attend each class at the same time every day for the entire two week session. Campers will be responsible for changing classes—we suggest you come the Friday before the session starts to help your child locate each classroom. All campers will receive a lanyard/i.d. with their individual schedules printed, to help them find their classes. All classes contained and supervised in one area of Bracher Elementary. Dress for a mess: The best way to experience the arts is to get your hands dirty. Campers will receive an Arts Escape t-shirt to wear to camp. What to bring: Sunscreen, a water bottle, snack, and a good attitude. If you’re staying for Arts Extension bring a lunch. Appropriate shoes are essential (no flip-flops, Crocs, or boots).
