In this teen printmaking and collage summer camp, explore the connections between drawing, printmaking and collage. We’ll work with a variety of materials and techniques with content driven by student interest. Students will enjoy new ways to express themselves and build skills in composition, color theory and mark making. With both historical and contemporary artworks as inspiration, artists can try new media as well as broaden their understanding of art.
Looking to stay with us all day? Once a summer morning camp is done at noon, teens can volunteer with us and work with our younger campers in the afternoon. For more information, email kirsten@westwindsorarts.org
