Creativity is the name of the game at our fun-filled Summer Art Camps in Issaquah!
Drawing, Painting, Sculpture and Mixed Media – there’s something new every week! Kids can attend in just the Mon-Thu mornings or afternoons for “half-day” art camps or combine them along with a Noon-1:00pm supervised lunch hour to create a “full-day” camp (the lunch hour fee will be waived in this case). ALL NEW projects planned EVERY WEEK!
All camps are designed for ages 5-14 (we’ll split into smaller groups based on age). Projects vary among age groups in order to be age-appropriate and may be customized according to the individual interest of students attending each week.
