Creativity thrives as campers explore their artistic abilities, play games, and make lasting friendships at Ulster Arts Camp! Our experienced and friendly counselors and teaching artists support fun, hands-on art-making with various mediums, including painting, sculpture, collage, animation, and performances, based on engaging weekly camp themes. The pieces created at camp will portray your child's individuality, tapping into each camper’s specific interests.
The theme for Week 2 is Fungi & Friends! This week of camp is going to be so MUSH fun! Explore the forest floor and all its inhabitants by making toadstool gnome houses, paint collabrative mushroom landscapes, and create your own fungi friend!
A final showcase each Friday will display all of the campers’ artwork and show off their learned performances to friends and family. Daily schedules include opening and closing circles, structured art instruction, snacks, lunch, and outside play.
