Creative Kids Art Camp

Keep your children engaged throughout the school year with our Creative Kids Art Camp program. Each week, students will explore different art processes and try their hands at something new.  From painting to sculpting to print making, your child will develop their love and appreciation for the arts with the guidance and support of our certified art teachers. 

MDCA Art Camps are age-integrated (6- 12 years old) in one classroom. Instructors work with individual students to customize the activity and enhance their experience.
