Jr. Art | 1st Grade

Full day program with swim lessons.

Get ready for a creative adventure and a chance for young artists to use a variety of art mediums to express their imaginations in exciting ways! Each day introduces new materials and techniques, from designing colorful clay mosaics to creating self-portraits. They'll also jump into imaginative projects like opposite drawings — for example, the contrast between hot and cold or ocean and desert — using different art materials to represent these opposites. This camp is all about having fun, and discovering the wonders of art in a supportive and exciting environment!

Our art project concepts may repeat each week. If your child will have fun and grow with, for example painting a forest one week during a landscape unit and deciding to create a pond scene the next, then they are sure to enjoy multiple weeks in this camp.

My grandson and his parents were really pleased with LINX Camps. We fell in love with the facilities and activities.

My camper's favorite part of the day was connecting with the counselors, they came home each day and shared how the counselors were able to make that day extra special for them."
