Once again Scrap4Art is thrilled to have Sarah Ritchey leading our Summer Art Camps. Sarah has a Masters in Art Education and has taught at the Toledo Museum of Art. The weekly themed camps will inspire young artists, ages 6 to 10, to use recycled materials to create their masterpieces as well as teach them the elements of art such as line, color, texture, form, shape, space and value.

 

An added feature this year are Friday drop-ins. These “camps” are for children of any age, accompanied by an adult. Materials and ideas will be provided and the mess

stays at Scrap 4Art.
