    FRIDAY EXHIBITS

    At the end of a week of camp, we will have Studio Art Exhibits for the students to show off what they created. Parents can come at 11:30 AM/3:30 PM on the last day of camp to admire the campers' creations from the week. (AM+PM guardians may come to AM, PM, or both exhibits).


    WHAT TO BRING
         WATER  We recommend bringing a refillable water bottle from home. Creating art makes you thirsty!

    SNACK Students are welcome to bring a snack to be eaten during our daily break times.

    LUNCH  Students attending camp all day will have a supervised lunch and break period. Students must bring their lunch from home. During the break period, students can go outside to play games or go for walks with the Camp Staff. This option is only available to students attending the AM and PM camps within a week.

    Health + Food Allergy Notice: Students cannot share food for the safety of others. We ask parents and guardians to be mindful of other children who may have potentially life-threatening allergies. To reduce this risk, please do not bring foods with peanuts and tree nuts.

    It does get a little chilly in the studios, so maybe a sweater!

    2. You can drive under the awning in front of the center to pick up your student from the front steps. Please display your car pass on the front dash with your child's name visible.
