ABOUT STEAM SUMMER CAMP:

Introducing ART into Science - Technology - Engineering - Mathematics

STEAM Summer Camp features activities such as clay, mixed media, technology and digital art, and art on the move. There is a different theme every week, allowing endless opportunities to create and explore their imagination - All while combining ART with STEM! Students learn from professional art educators and d'Art's on-site resident artists. Throughout these weeks they work collaboratively, enjoy short field trips, watch Resident Artists' demos, and create unique art projects using a variety of media and techniques.
