Kid’s Camps—The Art Camp Experience
Find the Best Art Camp for Your Child
Does your child love to draw, or spend time working with arts and crafts? Do they show an aptitude or passion for painting, sculpture or other artistic forms? Would you like to give them the opportunity to explore the broader world of art with positive role models and other young people with similar interests? There are a variety of art camps available for children of all ages, from elementary school children to high school or college students. There are day camps and after-school camps, as well as overnight experiences.
Educators and family therapists agree that the camp experience offers a broad range of benefits for children of all ages. Because camps emphasize inclusiveness and effort, your child can develop important social skills, including self-esteem, self-reliance and problem solving. The safe and structured environment of a camp can also build confidence and independence. Working with others who are encouraged to be creative can also free your child to develop his or her own unique sense of style, and to trust in his or her judgment and abilities.
If your budget is tight, there is also the possibility of financial assistance. According to a study conducted by the American Camp Association, nearly 90% of their accredited camps offer some type of scholarship or financial aid, based on income and need.
