Summer Art Camp: Creature World (Ages 9-12)

July 1, 2024 - July 3, 2024

3 Days

Monday - Wednesday 9:00 am - 2:00 pm

Taught by Kyle Canyon

It’s the perfect summer to give the imaginary characters living in your brain a reality of their own. Create your best creatures and the worlds they live in through acts of writing and art-making. Students will learn the basics of character design and storyboarding using an array of different art materials. This course is perfect for the self-directed student who loves playing pretend or making their grand ideas into art.
