SUMMARY:Aspirational Portraiture: Teen Art Camp with Joalida Smit
DESCRIPTION:Join Joalida Smit in her art studio for a week of drawing and painting an aspirational portrait – an image that reflects both your current inspirations and hopes for your future. We will think about ourselves\, who we are\, what we love and what we hope to change. I will take your budding artist through the process of image-making from ideation to final art work\, focusing on the fundamentals of the art process – drawing faces\, color-mixing for skin tones and composition. This art camp is process orientated\, meaning that I work with your teen’s unique style\, helping them to establish their artistic voice within the safety of a vibrant art studio environment. \nThis camp is ideal for middle schoolers aged 10 – 15 with artistic ability who wants to develop their skills to the next level. \n  \n \nJoalida Smit is a Clinical Psychologist and Neuropsychologist turned full time artist. Through these fun workshops she brings together her two passions: art and psychology\, assisting teens to think about their full creative selves. This course is open to all teens. LGBTQ friendly. This is not art therapy but using art to tell stories of psychological significance. www.joalidasmit.com

SUMMARY:Summer Collection Sewing Camp with Ciao Bella
DESCRIPTION:This is the perfect camp to kick off summer break! Your creative sewer will love using the sewing machine everyday to stitch up a variety of projects. \nDuring our Summer Collection camp sewers will make a variety of projects that they can wear throughout summer. We will make a cute tank top\, matching shorts and a reversible bag! \nThis camp will be led by Ciao Bella Sewing. All supplies\, including fabric\, sewing machines\, and sewing notions are provided. \nIt is SEW much fun to sew and create. Students can bring their own sewing machine or use the provided sewing machines. Students should bring a water bottle and healthy snack everyday. New and returning students are welcome! Ages 8 – 15 \nLearning to sew has many benefits: \n\nSewing allows children to explore their creativity and express themselves through fabric\, colors\, and design choices. They can bring their own ideas to life and create unique garments or crafts that reflect their individuality.\nSewing teaches practical skills that they can use throughout life like learning to sew on buttons\, mending garments\, or even creating their own clothing fosters independence and self-sufficiency.\nFollowing patterns\, measuring\, and making precise cuts and stitches develop fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination as well as problem-solving and critical thinking abilities.\nSewing can be a calming and therapeutic activity. The focus and concentration required during sewing can help children relax\, reduce stress\, and improve their overall well-being. It allows them to immerse themselves in a creative process and enjoy a sense of accomplishment when they complete a project.
