Summer Art Camp: The (not so)Empty Box: Paper-making and Art with Cardboard
Monday, August 4 – Friday, August 8, 2025
Time: 1:00-4:00pm
Ages: 6-10
Cost: $135 members, $145 non-members
Too much paper, too many boxes? On days one and two we will use found materials to make our own paper. As that dries, we will repurpose the ubiquitous cardboard box, making a paper garden-in-a-box, an accordion dragon, and if time allows, a multilayered collage portrait of a person or an animal.
Masks may be required in the classroom depending on community spread. Masks requirements may be subject to change. If you are not willing to wear a mask please do not register for our youth classes.
