Rhythm and Design: Art in Motion: Ages 5-8

About this class

Course Description <!--td {border: 1px solid #cccccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--> Get ready to move, make, and create in Rhythm & Design: Art in Motion! In this fun and energetic camp, young artists explore the exciting world of music, dance, and decorative arts from around the globe. Campers will make their own maracas or drums inspired by the rhythms of Latin America and Africa, craft colorful masks like those used in festivals across Africa, Asia, and Latin America, and design playful shadow puppets inspired by traditional performances from Indonesia and Turkey. Using materials like recyclables, cardboard, papier-mâché, and clay, students will bring their ideas to life through sound, movement, and storytelling. By the end of the week, campers will take home their own handmade instruments, masks, and puppets—ready to perform, play, and celebrate art in motion! IMPORTANT: All students enrolled in Summer Youth Camps must submit the following packet of Summer Youth Camp Child Pickup Authorization prior to admittance into the classroom. Students will not be permitted to attend without this. $40 Materials Kit: A $40 materials fee is included in the camp tuition. Note(s): For campers who wish to experience a full-day of camp, please enroll here. You will need to upload a photo and insurance card in order to register for youth courses.
