Artist Boat Fall & Winter Eco-Art Camps
Art meets science in Artist Boat Fall & Winter day camp sessions!
Artist Boat Eco-Art Campers will experience true science and art enrichment with outdoor activities and art projects. Different activities are at each camp.
Due to the nature of the camps, sessions are designed for children ages 5 to 10. Registration is required and spaces are limited to 12 students to ensure small camp size and individual attention.
Campers will experience true science and art enrichment with the creation of Eco-Art and exploration of Artist Boat’s Coastal Heritage Preserve. Each camper will create high quality art projects and explore like a young naturalist. Each day is a different theme. Come for one or come for all!
