Ages 8-12 years welcome! In this week-long kids camp, campers will explore ceramics, woodworking and paper mache’ for five days of insect-inspired crafting fun! Kids will build raised clay bugs using pinch and coil hand building techniques. Campers will score and slip, adding surface textures with leaves, grass, and other simple tools. They’ll create a bug project out of wood and wire, and have creative three-dimensional designs to take home with them and to display.

Campers should plan to bring a snack (no peanuts or candy, please) and refillable bottle of water to camp each day.
