Copy of Summer Camps 2022
Summer has never been this much fun!
Our students spend the week creating one-of-a-kind art pieces. Each week we focus on different art forms. Kids are encouraged to use their imaginations as they explore new art techniques and mediums - from sculpture to airbrush, drawing to printmaking, slime to Photoshop, and everything in-between - there is something for everyone! We know kids don’t stop learning during the summer, so we made it educational too!
At Blair Center for the Arts, our outstanding instructors teach a wide range of youth classes, from photography and Photoshop to drawing cartoons and comics, from painting to crafts and mixed media, and everything in between. Check out some of our popular courses below, and sign up today!

Every child is an artist!
Imagine combining your wildly imaginative pre-schooler with impressive art supplies, phenomenal art teachers, oodles of fun & a dash (or 8) of glitter. All you need to worry about is deciding where you're going to display your new art collection!
Pre-school children are introduced to a supportive social environment in which to gradually explore their independence. While building social skills, self-awareness, and self-confidence. The young artists are guided through the creative process through the encouragement of original and creative self-expression. You’ll want to drive straight to the frame shop!

Variety is the spice of life so during Stroke of Genius Camp we will engage in a wide range of projects with topics and supplies that will spark their creativity & expose them to a stimulating mix of age-appropriate art techniques each day.
