SUMMER ART CAMPS:

… a summer art camp adventure!

 The Chartreuse Muse Art School offers a creative escape from the hot summer months for children   7-12  years of age. Our summer art camps allow students to create works of art and socialize with other creative kids, all while being taught by highly qualified professional art teachers.

**Students can take one week, all, or any combination of weeks and will have all new projects each week!

***These camps are different from our regular after-school classes, so students can continue through the summer with new projects!

Clay-Ventures introduces students to the wonder of clay, exploring various hand-building and glazing techniques. Students will create decorative and functional projects that are low fire and food safe. Students will experience the wonder of clay!
