| Summer Art Camp with Marie Redmond 340 Walter Drive, Keswick, ON L4P 3A7 (905) 476-2653 marieredmond@rogers.com |
| Hello, my name is Marie Redmond and I am an art instructor for the Georgina Art Centre and Gallery in Sutton. This year, by popular demand, I have decided to hold summer camps right here in my Keswick studio. Camps are limited to 6-8 students making it easier to give individual attention to each student. Please register early to avoid disappointment. Each camp runs for 3 days per week, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday from 9am until 3:30pm. Ages: 6-14 Every week we will have a different theme. Campers will be able to explore various art materials ranging from acrylic paint, watercolour, charcoal, pastels, air dry clay, collage and a daily project in polymer clay. Cost per session: $90.00 Two Snacks provided Additional siblings: $80.00 ea. Please provide a lunch for your child and appropriate clothing. A registration form MUST be filled out and signed and returned prior to camp, along with a $25.00 deposit. (Receipts available) I can send registration via email or you can pick it up. During each session I hope to be able to take the children outside into the yard to do some 'plein air' real life drawing or painting. (weather permitting) We will be eating our lunches outside and hopefully will encounter a few of our resident animals. Chipmunks, squirrels and some very noisy blue jays. Campers will probably get a close up look at a few baby birds nesting in our birdhouses. Please check out the schedule and themes below. |
