Alexandria Museum of Art Summer Camps (To-Go)
to
Statewide Baton Rouge, Louisiana
This summer, the Alexandria Museum of Art is painting the way with three sessions of creative virtual camps for kids. These half-day camps provide campers with dynamic, art-centered experiences that will entertain and challenge your and creative thinkers who are interested in art. With each registration, campers will receive a box of supplies for a week’s worth of projects, written lesson plans, video instruction, and access to AMoA’s Virtual Artroom to interact with the certified art instructors and other campers. Projects can be completed without a computer. A webcam with internet access is required to participate in the secure Virtual Artroom. Campers ages 6-9 meet from 9 am-noon; campers ages 10 and older meet from 1-4 pm. $100 for AMoA members; $150 for non-members. Sign up this June at themuseum.org for these July options:
July 13-17: Muddy Magic: With lessons ranging from hand-building to ceramic sculpture, campers will enjoy working with Nancy Noles and getting their hands dirty while making creative works of ceramic art using air dry clay.
