Art Camp (Ages 7-9) 

Art camp focuses on combining art and animals. In this week-long session, campers will spend their morning hours socializing with animals, completing volunteer work and participating in numerous animal-related activities. Each afternoon will be spent with Kristin Gjerdset, Associate Professor of Art at Wisconsin Lutheran College, who will be leading the campers in various animal-related art lessons. The campers will have a wonderful art portfolio of the pieces they created throughout the week. Suggested for campers who prefer drawing, painting, and similar activities. 

Camp Highlights  

  • Create Your Own Art Portfolio: Campers will have a beautiful portfolio showcasing their animal-themed artwork, all created under the guidance of a professional artist. 

  • Explore Different Artistic Styles: Experiment with different art styles, such as realism, abstraction, and impressionism, as campers learn how to express their love for animals through unique visual mediums. 

  • Showcase of Artwork: At the end of the camp, campers will have the chance to showcase their animal-inspired artwork in a special exhibition for family and friends to enjoy. 

  • Build Confidence & Creativity: This camp provides a supportive and creative environment where campers can build confidence in their artistic abilities while developing a deeper connection with animals and learning about their care.

Also, please do not drop children off early unless they have been registered for morning extended care. We do not want them waiting alone outside.

Children Information

It is important to inform HAWS of any special needs; physical, medical, mental or emotional, that your child may have so that we can provide a successful HAWS experience. Failure to inform HAWS of any of these needs that are necessary to know when instructing your child may result in your child being unable to participate and a loss of program fees.
