SUMMARY:Drawing Faces Like Da Vinci Art Camp
DESCRIPTION:Drawing Faces Like Da Vinci is a hands-on art camp designed for middle and high schoolers to master the art of portrait drawing using the techniques of the great Leonardo da Vinci. \nWe will use contemporary images from fashion and sport (appealing to all genders\, and interests) and over five sessions students will combine direct instruction with guided practice to explore Da Vinci’s principles of proportion\, symmetry\, and shading. Inspired by the Vitruvian Man and the golden ratio\, young artists will uncover the science behind beauty and balance in facial features. \nWhether beginners or budding artists\, participants will develop new skills\, gain confidence\, and leave with their own Renaissance-inspired masterpieces. Grades 5-12

The program is taught by certified teachers with hands-on topics led by community guest speakers as well as visits from the Lake Forest Police Department and Lake Forest Fire Department. Teen volunteers lead the children through camp every day and receive valuable training along with obtaining community service hours. Campers learn about pedestrian safety by tricycling about a miniature town complete with streets\, sidewalks\, buildings\, stop signs and a working traffic signal. Importance is placed on having the children memorize a cell phone number to call if they should ever become lost. We use fun songs to reinforce all of these principles and the children memorize our very own Safety Town Pledge! \nSafety Town Majors will be held at Gorton Center from Tuesday\, June 10 through Friday\, June 13 from 1 to 4 pm\, rain or shine. On Friday\, we will have a graduation in our theater. A t-shirt will be provided on the first day of camp for campers to wear throughout the week. We ask that children bring their helmets every day. We will provide the tricycles. \nWhat do Children Learn at Safety Town?\nSafety Town students learn about a variety of situations and what they should do to remain safe\, including: \n\nPedestrian\, Railroad and Traffic Safety\nBicycle Safety\nWater\, Beach and Playground Safety\nFire Prevention\nPersonal Safety\nPet and Wildlife Safety\nStranger Safety\n\nInterested in being a counselor?  Register here! \nThere will be a graduation ceremony on the last day of the program.
