Week 2

Movement and Mask Making

June 22-26, 9:00am-3pm 

What do we discover when we put on the face of a character made from our own imaginings? 

In this week of movement and mask making campers dive into character through visual arts, music, collaboration and movement. Along with creative explorations, each day campers connect through games, stories, and the land and animals on the farm. Kids are invited to PLAY, get messy, and stay curious as their imaginings become unique characters and stories.
