Summer Classes for Kids at Manor Mill

Summer Art Camp with Cheryl Bubier
Ages 7 - 14

Explore nature through art by drawing from observation along the river. Take trail walks, create drawings, make a weaving, study birds, design a watercolor bird mobile, and make cigar box sculptures inspired by nature. Appropriate for 2nd-8th graders.

Please bring a snack, water bottle and sunscreen each day of camp. Please let us know if there are any allergies.

*Parents are NOT required to stay for the duration of this camp. You may drop your kids off and pick them up at the start and end of each day- please make sure that you are walking your child to and from your car to check in with the instructor– we have a busy parking lot, and we are close to the road. Thank you!
