Kids in the woods summer day camp interweaves arts with weeklong intensives in environmental sciences. At kids in the woods camp, youth 7-11 years old learn about their relationship to the natural environment. Through hands-on arts activities children use both artistic and scientific skills to observe, identify and collect natural materials and processes. They then record their experiences through visual arts such as clay, paint, drawing, collage, and sculpture. They develop literary arts through journaling, poetry and storytelling. Campers also engage with performing arts through movement, music, and creating their own plays. Kids in the woods camp features guests artists and scientists, providing deeper dives into subject matter.
