2023 Summer Youth Art Camps

Marian invites all 2nd-8th grade girls to join us this summer for art camps. Our summer art camps are taught by current Marian Art teacher Ashley Bauer. These camps are open to all levels of artists! Our art camps offer guided instruction and also allow for creative expression. Participating in these camps is a great way to get a taste of the Marian art curriculum and an opportunity to learn from one of our art teachers.

Session Descriptions

I HeART Drawing

Grab your pencils and prepare for a drawing escape into the art world! Try your hand at a variety of techniques while using artist-grade materials like Prisma colored pencils and markers, oil pastels, pen and ink. Learn tips and tricks while creating your very own masterpieces in Marian’s art studio. Campers will also try their hand at digital drawing using iPads & Apple pencils. Students will receive an amazing art kit that includes a sketchbook, pencils, erasers, and more.

I HeART Painting & Mixed Media

Have fun experimenting in Marian’s art studio as you build skills in brush techniques, color mixing, and design while using watercolor, tempera, inks, mixed media, and acrylics. This class allows beginners and more advanced young artists to find and explore their styles. Students will receive an amazing art kit with a sketchbook, brushes, and more.

I HeART Clay and Sculpture

This class is for beginners and more advanced young potters & sculptors. Most of the camp will be dedicated to ceramics, but we will have time to explore other media “in the round” like glass fusing and polymer clay. Students will gain a better understanding and appreciation of 3-D art while leaving with amazing projects they will be proud to show off! We will also learn proper glazing techniques and ways to create colorful masterpieces without glaze. Artists will have full access to Marian’s pottery studio.
