was asked to cut arts
funding in favor of the

more news from camp
We were fortunate enough to have an exhibition of the campers beautiful art work in the Project Space of the gallery at the end of a hard week of work. We made artistic discoveries about the figure in art from Egyptian profiles to Greek Mythology. From tin can robots to yoga mats. From Edward Muybridge inspired flip books to designing our own hula hoops and beaded jewelry. I am grateful to the counselors, the teen helpers, the students, artists and families that participated by having the courage to believe in art for their children.
