Art in Motion Camp
Camps | This class is completed
Art in Motion explores dance and art through the works of visionary artists. Every day we discover a new artist, immersing ourselves in their unique style and voice. Alma Thomas (Collage), Joan Miro (Colored Pencil Sketch), Paul Klee (Puppets), and Georgia O’Keefe (Watercolor) will inspire our creations. Creative dance class includes time for dance-making inspired by our daily artist. Art in Motion engages creativity and expression through kinesthetic and visual/spatial learning experiences, fusing the worlds of dance and visual art! Dancers and artists share their creativity with family in an informal presentation on the last day of camp.
