Details

At d’Art Center our mission is to provide unique opportunities for our community to experience the visual arts. Every summer we offer an art camp designed for children ages 6-14 to watch, learn, create, and enjoy art in an interactive environment.

This year we are offering 8 themed weeks, from June 8th to August 7th, with a break during the June 29th to July 3rd week. Throughout these weeks, campers will learn about different art mediums and techniques from weekly 30-minute demonstrations led by d’Art Artists, create a variety of themed projects that nurture their imagination and encourage creative thinking, and enjoy diverse activities led by special guests, as well as trips to The Chrysler Museum of Art & Perry Glass Studio. Previous guests have included Virginia Air & Space Science Center, Norfolk Master Gardeners, Zeider's American Dream Theater, Push Comedy, Mathnasium, Norfolk SPCA, and more!

*Campers cannot be enrolled in Summer Arts Camp and Pottery Camp for the same week(s).
