Come take a journey into the art of assemblage! This camp will give students the opportunity to create beautiful art from found and recycled items. Campers will learn inventive methods for turning found objects into works of two and three-dimensional art. We will use treasures from nature, as well as thrifted and discarded household items to create sculpture, wall hangings and functional items. Students will learn about adhesives and a wide variety of other materials while exploring color, form and elements of design.
