Each camp will consist of hours of fun art discovery mixed with outdoor activities and lunch. 

Children will have the opportunity to discover an array of mediums ( see below) that they normally would not have access to in a school environment. 

Eache day, the young artists will experience 2 new mediums, eat, play and exercices.
