AMA Summer Art Camps Will Keep Kids Engaged With Creative Projects

Staff Report From Albany CEO

Friday, April 19th, 2019

Bring a world of art to your child this summer with Art Adventures Around the World, six terrific summer art camps that will keep young campers engaged and spark creativity. The camps will be at the Albany Museum of Art.

“We think that parents and kids will be extremely happy with our camp themes this summer,” Chloe Hinton, director of Education and Public Programming for the AMA, said. “It’s an exciting lineup, from classic art to culinary arts to animation and even fashion design.

“There’s a world of choices for campers this summer with our Art Adventures Around the World.”

Camps are age-appropriate for children, with dual camps being conducted some weeks to accommodate both younger campers in rising grades K-2nd and older campers in grades 3-5.

“We wanted to try something new with the split camps so that our young campers get the most out of their week,” Hinton said. “We think these age groupings will enhance our campers’ experiences.”

Free early drop-off at 8 am and late pick-up at 5 pm are available for all 9 am-4 pm camps.

“We don’t mind coming in a little early,” Hinton said. “We know moms and dads still have to work while their children are on break from school. We want to do everything we can to make it easier for parents to get their children to and from camp here at the AMA.”

Also, “early bird” registrations get special discount pricing. Early bird registration continues through May 15. Register your camper at albanymuseum.com/summer-art-camp.html or call 229.430.8400.
